3/4 c. sugar
1/4 tsp. salt
7 Tbsp. flour
2 eggs
3 c. milk, scalded
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 to 3/4 c. coconut (add more if desired)
1/2 c. heavy cream, whipped (or substitute Cool Whip)
1 deep dish crust, baked
In medium bowl combine sugar, salt, flour, and eggs. Slowly add sugar mixture to scalded milk, stirring constantly over low heat until it begins to boil. Reduce heat to a simmer, continue to stir and cook 2 to 3 minutes, until thickened. Remove from heat, add vanilla. Cool to room temperature, fold in coconut; pour the filling into shell. Top with whipped cream and sprinkle with additional coconut. Chill. Serves 6.
