    Yield: 6 Servings

    2 c Milk

    Grated fresh coconut
    4 Egg yolks
    3 tb Cornstarch
    3 tb Water
    1 tb Butter or margarine

    -------------------------MERINGUE-------------------------
    4 Egg whites (or more)
    1/4 ts Cream of tartar

    Combine milk, 1/2 cup sugar, salt and 1/4 cup grated

    To make meringue, beat egg whites with cream of tartar

    sugar for each egg white used and continue beating
    until stiff peaks form. Swirl meringue over filling,
    making sure it is sealed to edge of pie shell.
    Sprinkle with grated coconut. Bake at 400F until
    golden brown, about 10 minutes. Cool completely. Makes
    6 to 8 servings
