1 1/2 cups heavy cream
3 tablespoons powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
This is my dream pie and everything I think a coconut pie should have: a golden, flaky crust; a cool and creamy, fluffy filling that tastes like coconut, not just a vanilla pastry cream with shredded coconut stirred in; and freshly whipped and sweetened heavy cream because I'm a whipped cream girl, not a meringue girl.

This is the best coconut cream pie recipe I've found so far. I make a pie recipe until I find one better-- for the last few years, I can't find a coconut cream pie recipe that even rivals this pie. I am paid to make this for gifts and have converted as much of it as I can to sugar-free for a diabetic (Splenda works, but you still need the cream of coconut which still has quite a few carbs.)
