This is another easy recipe made with my DIY Biscuit Mix! Just use the home made in place of Bisquick!
If you are in a hurry for a dessert or have unexpected company coming, it’s easy to put together this pie from pantry staples. I love that about this recipe. Our kids even learned to make it when they were 9 or 10. Because a lot of dried flaked or shredded coconut contains chemicals, I recommend using an organic unsweetened flaked or shredded coconut like this one.
I found this recipe in a newspaper at least 15 years ago. It was in a column called “Good Neighbors” where people would write in and ask or give recipes or tips. At the time, the “good neighbor” said it was over 30 years old and that her son made it in school. I have been using it as a pantry staple for years because I normally have all of these ingredients on hand. I use homemade biscuit mix instead of bisquick, and you can use any brand. It kind of tastes like a coconut custard pie. I don’t always use a blender (I didn’t for the photo here, I just used a whisk and you can see the coconut flakes). My family likes cocoa added to it as well for a flavor somewhat like a mounds candy bar.
