STEP-1
In a medium saucepan, whisk milk and egg until completely incorporated. Add your sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Cooking over medium heat, whisk frequently until thickened.
STEP-2
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in vanilla then the coconut. Pour into your cooled crust (we used Marie Calendar's store-bought crust that you bake, but you can also make your own).
STEP-3
Place in refrigerator until chilled, a few hours.
STEP-4
Whip together your cream, sugar, and vanilla until light and fluffy. Spread on top of chilled pie.
STEP-5
Spread your coconut on a cookie sheet or pan.
STEP-6
Toast at 350°F for about 2-4 minutes, until lightly golden. Sprinkle on top of your pie and eat up!
