For Sharon in MO in the July 28-29 newsletter who wanted old fashioned coconut cream pie recipe. This was my grandmother's so I think in qualifies.

Old Fashioned Coconut Cream Pie

1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons cornstarch

Mix in a large (at lease 2 qt) heavy pan. Slowly stir in 2 cups milk. Over medium heat and stirring constantly, bring to a boil and boil 1 minute. Remove from heat. Then have 2 slightly beaten egg yolks ready and slowly add some of the hot mixture to the egg yolks until they are warm.(this keeps the eggs from scrambling ). Then blend this mixture back to orginal mixture. Bring to a boil and boil from 1 minute. Remove from heat. Blend in 2 teaspoons butter and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Now add your coconut (or bananas) Pour into baked pie crust and chill. You can top with meringue if you wish

Hope this help you ladies.
