Coconut & Chocolate Cream Pie

Welcome to Pie Day! I went against tradition this year and thought I'd bake a few pies that had a great story. My favorite restaurant to stop at, when I get the chance, is the Sun Glow Restaurant in Bicknell, Utah. Yes, small town and definitely worth the drive. They have the most fabulous pies there - Pickle Pie, Oatmeal Pie, Pecan Pie, Pinto Bean Pie, and Coconut and Chocolate Cream Pie. Who would have thought, right? And it's like you're going to be daring enough to try, but you're going to want to try, really bad. It's one of those "you walk away and you'll regret it" moments. Anywho, I was able to get the recipes and I so looked forward to sharing with you this Thanksgiving. Don't be afraid. They are delicious. Enjoy -
