I make mine with real whipped cream, and if you are in a hurry you can substitute the cooked pudding with instant. If you make it with the cooked pudding, make it first to allow time for it to cool while you make the other layers. It does take time and patience to make this but it's all worth it in the end when you take that first bite. The coconut pops in your mouth making your mouth water even more from just looking at it. The coconut is then followed by the semi-sweet pudding that just ties the whole thing together. Over all it's a pretty lip-smacking-good dessert if I do say so myself.



Hello to you! I am Tano, at your service. -Bows-
noun; a state of dreamy meditation or fanciful musing



When your mind is a mess so is mine I can't sleep
'Cause it hurts when I think my thoughts aren't at peace
With the plans that we make, chances we take
They're not yours and not mine there's waves that can break
Leaving like a day that's done and part of a season
Resolve is just a concept that's as dead as the leaves
But at least we can sleep, it's all that we need
When we wake we will find our minds will be free to go to sleep

Spray a 9-inch pie plate with cooking spray. In a food processor, process graham crackers until finely ground. Add butter and 1 tablespoon of water, and process until the crumb clumps together. Press crumb mixture into bottom of pie plate and about 1/2-inch up the sides. Bake in the oven for 10 minutes, then let cool.
Step 2 wrote:In the meantime, make the filling. Put the gelatin in a small bowl; add 3 tablespoons of boiling water and stir until gelatin is dissolved. In a medium saucepan, whisk together 1/3 cup of sugar and the flour. In a medium bowl lightly beat the milk and eggs together. Add the egg and milk mixture to the saucepan and whisk so the flour and sugar dissolve. Cook over a medium heat, stirring constantly, for 10 minutes, until mixture comes to a boil and has thickened. Stir in the vanilla extract and gelatin. Set aside to cool slightly.

Whip the cream with an electric beater. When it is about halfway done, add 1/2 teaspoon of sugar, then continue whipping until fully whipped. Put the whipped cream in a plastic bag, concentrating it in 1 corner of the bag. Snip that corner off the bag and squeeze the whipped cream out of the bag in a decorative pattern around the pie.
