GRANDMA'S COCONUT CUSTARD
This custard is used for the filling in my recipe that is posted "Grandma's Coconut Cake" http://www.justapinch.com/recipe/karla-everett/grandmas-coconut-cake/cake This is a very good custard and I'm sure it could have many uses but I've only used it for her cake. I have cheated and used store bought toasted coconut to cut time and it works just fine. I have never tried it with the fresh coconut.
