COCONUT CREAM PIE

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, whisk together the corn starch, sugar and salt. Gradually whisk in the milk. Cook over medium heat, constantly whisking to ensure the milk doesn't scorch or burn. Milk mixture will begin to thicken. When it starts to bubble, stir a little of the hot milk mixture into the egg yolks, then stir the yolks into the remaining hot mixture. Continue to whisk the hot mixture for one minute more then promptly remove from the heat. Whisk in the melted butter, vanilla and coconut. Pour custard into the cooled pie shell. Cover with plastic wrap and chill.

Whisk for 3-5 minute or until stiff peaks form. Add the container of marshmallow cream, and whisk for 2-3 minutes more for stiff peaks. Meringue will be firm. Add the meringue to the chilled custard pie, and seal the meringue to the pie crust so it doesn't shrink while baking. Bake at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes or until golden brown. (I don't recommend making peaks in the meringue, as these tend to burn before the rest of the meringue cooks.) Chill pie until ready to serve. Enjoy!
