Impossible Coconut Custard Pie

Unable to find my recipe for Amazing Coconut Pie (the kind that uses Bisquick to make its own crust), I went searching through my cookbooks and found a similar one.
Well, I need not search any further because this new version is so much better!
Incredibly creamy, delicious and not 'egg-y'.
It has a wonderful texture.

I had to laugh when I read the title of this post! Any pie is "impossible' for me! But your pie looks awesome!

That photo is perfect...it ought to be in a beautiful cookbook!

Looks fantastic! It made it's own crust? So even a baking-challenged person can do well with this one? I have to try this.

Lady Farmer said...

It's not chocolate, but this looks like something I would love to try! It certainly looks delicious! I'm so glad you couldn't find your old standby recipe! Thanks for sharing this one!
Blessings!

Years ago our girls would make an 'impossible' coconut pie a couple of times a week, as I remember fondly. How they loved to bake! And what a great recipe that was, I'm sure I must have it written down somewhere here. I try not to bake much these days, but its oh so tempting. Your new recipe looks luscious. Being lactose intolerant saves me a few caloriew anyway! But I used to love all the baking we did too.

Tracy said...

WEll, I thought I'd sent the comment but I'll give it another try...it disapperared into Cyber Space!
What I said was I made a recipe like this when I was in high shcool and I loved it; didn't remember it until I saaw yours...YUM!
Uh, did you take the calories out of it? :)

Dayle said...

It looks delicious, L! Love the lily of the valley too!
I still have that little pamphlet with all the impossible pie recipes from so long ago!

Buttercup said...

Refrigerate leftovers? Ha! This looks delicious and I don't think there will be much left over.

Mildred said...

This looks so good. Larry has a birthday coming up and coconut is his fav!

Julie said...

This is a crust I could make! I am so crust challenged! I am not a huge coconut fan but this looks amazingly good.

The lilies of the valley are so pretty. My favorite Spring flower, reminds me of my grandmother!

Julie Harward said...

Oh YUM! I know this is good because I used to make it a lot a few years ago..I think I will be making it again..thanks! :D

CJ said...

I remember making MANY different Bisquick Impossible Pies! I might even have the recipes in some box that hasn't been unpacked for three moves. So did you use Bisquick for your biscuit mix in this?? It sure does look good.

Paula {Salad in a Jar} said...

WOW! That looks so creamy and so much better than any "impossible" pie I ever made or tasted. May have to give this classic another look.

I've never tried the impossible, but since coconut pie is my very favorite, your recipe is definitely worth a try.

I made this tonight and it came out egg-y. Any idea why this could have happened since you said yours wasn't.
