for this month's challenge i actually made a tart. but then i argued with myself that it wasn't really a pie. pies are deeper whereas tarts are more shallow. i also argued with myself over the timing. i wanted to make the crust from scratch but i just did not have the time to make it, (i did make the tart dough from scratch). there was a lot of arguing within myself this month.
so i chose the coconut cream pie. actually, jason did. what happened was that he requested it for a bbq but i was so embarrassed by how it kinda looked, i ended up buying it frozen (the horror, i know) but i still did have the ingredients hanging out. so i brought it for another cookout. (it was also a month of bbqs)

nuria tasted the filling, it was too sweet for her liking. for me, i didn't taste it, i don't like coconut.
i used this recipe: Cheater's Coconut Cream Pie
i think i will do this pie again, but in mini version, for jason. it's not often that i bake for him.

I <3 coconut type pies. Especially coconut custards.
I don't know the meaning of this phrase you've used "too sweet". i betcha it was awesome. i love coconut as well.
