- 1. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees F. Place the unbaked pie crust on a cookie sheet. Set aside.
- 2. In a large bowl, beat the eggs until frothy. Mix together the sugar and cornstarch and add to the beaten eggs. Mix well to combine. Add the vanilla extract, coconut extract and salt. Mix well.

- 5. Add 3/4 cup of the coconut to the egg mixture and mix well.
- 6. Place the cookie sheet with the pie crust in the oven with rack in the middle position. Carefully pour filling into the pie crust. Sprinkle remaining coconut evenly over top. Carefully slide rack back into oven.
- 7. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until crust is golden brown and knife inserted comes out clean. (If crust starts to brown too quickly, cover only crust with aluminum foil.
