Coconut Custard Pie

My mother-in-law shared this recipe with me. She baked us one of these last week and it lasted less than 24 hours in our house. Delicious!

Ingredients:
2 eggs
1 cup sugar
1/2 stick butter, softened
1 1/4 cups sweetened flaked coconut
1 cup evaporated milk
1 tbs corn starch
1 tsp vanilla
1 pie crust

Instructions:
Cream together butter and sugar. Add eggs and mix well. Stir in coconut. In a separate bowl, mix together milk and corn starch. Then add milk mixture to coconut mixture, stirring well. Stir in vanilla. Pour filling into pie crust and bake at 350 degrees for 45-55 mintues. Shields may be needed to keep crust edges from browning too fast.
