Coconut Pie
by Charlotte
6 servings
2 cups milk
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup sugar
2 eggs, beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla flavoring
2 cups coconut
1 (9 inch) pie crusts
In a glass measuring cup mix the first 4 ingredients.
Microwave for 3 minutes until hot. Remove.
In another bowl whisk eggs, now you want to temper the eggs by adding some of the hot mixture into the eggs as you whisk.
Repeat step three again, then pour egg mixture into the first bowl. Keep mixing so the eggs do not cook.
Return to microwave for 8 minutes, remove to whisk at 2 minute intervals.
When done this should be a thick pudding.
Stir in flavoring and coconut and pour into a baked pie shell.
Chill.
