    Cream And Coconut Cream Pies

    Dinner in 3, 2, 1 Followers…you’re in for a real treat! My Mom made the long journey from Kentucky to Texas (17 hour drive to be precise) and is sharing her famous Cream and Coconut Cream Pie recipes! She’s made these pies in various flavors my whole life and gets requests to make them all the time. Even if you may not give it a try, it’s truly an art just to watch her make them. They’re beautiful, delicious and taste just like home. I love my Mom!

    Ingredients

    Filling

    • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
    • ⅔ cup all-purpose flour
    • 1 ½ cups milk
    • 6 egg yolks
    • 12 oz evaporated milk
    • ½ cup butter
    • 2 frozen 9-inch pie shells baked per package directions

    Meringue

    • 6 egg whites

    • 2 heaping spoonfuls marshmallow cream

    Instructions
