'Impossible' Coconut Custard Pie

 I love pie. I love coconut. When I saw a recipe for an easy coconut custard pie, I had to make it. It's really as easy and as good as they say.

Impossible Coconut Custard Pie

1/2 cup Bisquick
3/4 cup sugar
4 eggs
2 cups milk
3-1/2 ounces shredded coconut
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 tablespoon butter, softened

 You just combine all the ingredients and pour them into a 9 inch greased pie pan (I used glass). Bake at 400° for 25-30 minutes or until the custard sets. As it bakes, the ingredients separate into layers ... crust, custard, topping. Cool.

 I required the full 30 minutes in our oven and I turned the broiler on high for the last two minutes. I wanted the crust darkened but I think this step would not have been necessary.
 The pie seemed quite liquid even when the custard tested done. It sets further as it cools.
 This morning, after a night in the refrigerator, the pie is perfect. The "crust" is a little crunchy and delightfully sweet. It's a wonderfully easy pie to make and can be whipped together in nothing flat.
 This one's a keeper.
