Rum Sauce

1. In saucepan, heat butter over medium heat until melted

2. Add brown sugar and mix together until sugar dissolves

Toast some additional coconut under broiler. Place a few tablespoons of warm rum sauce on the bottom of a serving plate. Place warm pie on top of sauce, top with whipped cream and toasted coconut.

Caution: the rum sauce will ignite when you pour in the rum, stand back and make sure nothing flammable is close.

Best if you can cook this in a deep dish pan if possible. You would have to 1 1/2 times the recipe and cook about 20 minutes longer.
