Mom-Mom Bessie's Coconut Molasses Pie image

I'm the keeper of my husband's grandmother's handwritten recipe book. Mom-Mom Bessie was one of the best cooks I knew, and we think of her every time we make this pie. The flavor combination of coconut and molasses is a family favorite. -Susan Bickta, Kutztown, Pennsylvania

I was a bit hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a big fan of coconut, but I'm so glad I did! The coconut flavor is subtle and doesn't overpower the molasses. The pie is perfectly sweet and has a lovely creamy texture.
