Redwood Room Apple Pie image

I've had this recipe pasted in my recipe binder for many years now. It's originally from the food section of the Houston Chronicle and is one of their most requested recipes. It's an easy pie to make, using canned pie-sliced apples, but what really makes this pie is the delicious cream cheese, coconut, and chopped walnut topping. I've always gotten compliments whenever I served this!
