This pie comes from Grandma's Great Desserts. We love coconut so this is a favorite for us, I suppose you could halve the top layer if you are not as fond of coconut as us? I use My Favorite Pie Crust for the crust. Seize the moment. Think of all those women on the 'Titanic' who waved off the dessert cart. Erma Bombeck Ingredients:
