Mary Ann's Famous Coconut Cream Pie
Gilligansisle.com ^ | none given | Mary Ann Summers(Dawn Wells)

Posted on 06/02/2024 12:52:31 PM PDT by DallasBiff

It's finally here and ready for baking! Mary Ann released her famous coconut cream pie recipe to the world. This was taken from the "Mary Ann's Cookbook" and I have yet to try it. If any of you bake this pie, please tell me how it came out. You can purchase Mary Ann's Cookbook at Amazon.com.

3 egg yolks Dash of salt 3/4 cup sugar 3 cups milk 2 tablespoons butter 1/2 cup cornstarch 1 cup coconut 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 baked 9-inch pie shell 3 egg whites Coconut for garnish In the top of a double boiler over simmering water beat the egg yolks and salt. Add the sugar, milk, and butter. As soon as the bottom pot boils, mix the cornstarch with a small amount of water. Add it to the egg yolk mixture a little at a time. Cook until thick, stirring constantly with a wire whisk. Add the coconut and vanilla. Pour the filling into the baked pie shell. Beat the egg whites with a small amount of sugar and spread the meringue over the pie. Sprinkle coconut on top and toast in the oven. Makes 6 servings.

Nah, Ginger was OK, they just never did allow Tina to make anything out of the character.

She was actually a fun loving, nice regular young lady.

Just think of all the people who visited the island and left them stranded.

Rum is not that hard to make.

Much easier to make than a pie.

There was an episode with a confused duck. They were tying a note to his leg hoping some hunter would shoot the duck, find the note, and they’d be rescued. Except the duck was too dumb to fly away.

So probably duck eggs.

I would choose to use unsweetened Coconut milk for this recipe.
A high quality or organic one, that's in a carton (not can).

Because of the theme song, she would always sign her Christmas cards “...and All The Rest.”
