I love those recipes that we all grew up with, they are just too good to miss out on.
My sweet husband made this pie for me {it was the first time he had ever made a PIE and he knocked it out of the park I tell you. Knocked it out of the park! So, if you are looking for the best coconut cream pie ever, this is the one. This is the recipe you need to make. Because seriously, it was hands down the best coconut cream pie I have ever had {and I’ve had a lot of pies over the years}.

Life. It’s so much sweeter when there’s dessert.
