Such a great dessert recipe given to me by an online acquaintance, that I actually purchased parfait glasses for this, though totally unnecessary. When I brought them to the table my father-in-law said, "Wow! Did you 'make' those?" Made me smile. : ) They were a hit, but the kid's don't like the coconut (surprise, surprise). (Cook time is chill time)

  • Bake the pie in a preheated oven. This will help to ensure that the pie bakes evenly.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will help to set the pie and make it easier to slice.
  • Serve the pie with a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream. This will add a delicious and refreshing touch to your pie.
