Ingredients

2 cups milk
2/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 egg yolks, beaten
2 tablespoons margarine
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups sweetened flaked coconut, divided
1 (9-inch) pie crust, baked
----------------------------
Meringue:
4 egg whites
1 (7-ounce) jar marshmallow creme

Directions:

Coconut Cream Pie:
Combine milk, sugar, cornstarch and salt in a saucepan; cook over medium heat until thickened. Cook for 2 additional minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. In a small bowl, stir a small amount of hot mixture into egg yolks. Pour yolks back into saucepan; simmer gently for 2 minutes. Add margarine, vanilla and one cup coconut; pour into crust. Spread meringue over pie; seal to edges. Sprinkle with remaining coconut. Bake at 350 degrees for 12 minutes.

Meringue:
Beat egg whites with an electric mixer on high speed until very stiff peaks form. Add marshmallow creme; beat for 4 minutes.

Tip: Let the kids make a sweet treat while waiting for a pie to bake! Twist scraps of leftover pie crust and roll in cinnamon-sugar. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes, until toasty…yum!
