Bake in 350 degree oven
Banana Pie-slice 3 bananas into shell and add filling.
Chocalote Pie- increase sugar to 1 cup and melt 2 1-ounce squares unsweetened chocolate in scalded milk. Sometimes I put 1/3 cup coffee in this mixture, liquid
Coconut Pie-Add 1 cup moist shredded coconut(I prefer Bakers brand) to filling and sprinkle 1/2 cup on Mreingue before browning.

This was my grandmothers recipe (the one who had chickens), I am not allowed at holiday dinners without 2 of these coconut pies, there is no better!
Forgot to say this is my Cream Pie recipe.
