No Fuss Coconut Cream Pie
Luscious filling nestled in a crumb crust and topped with billowy clouds of whipped cream.
"I made this pie for my boyfiend's birthday and he's lucky I didn't eat it all myself. This pie is absolutely delish and the cream cheese is a fun twist on the traditional coconut cream pie. I searched high and low for a recipe like this, though I didn't use the suggested graham cracker crust; in the interest of time I used a regular Pillsbury unroll and bake crust. Overall a great truly no fuss recipe!"

*Look for cream of coconut near the pina colada and margarita mixes.
