Absolutely the best! It got rave reviews at the coffee hour this morning and when I sampled some myself it was the most delicious concoction. East to make, fun as well. I would use the coconut crust again for other types of pies as well.

This is terrific for many reasons. I have made variations like pineapple and lemon. I have topped with strawberries and raspberries - this is especially great with the lime and lemon. Now for the coconut crust-AMAZING. I am using this crust for other custard or buttermilk pies and for friends who are gluten sensitive. I love this site!
