Expert Tips

Cover the top of the pie completely with the whipped cream so the color underneath does not show and ruin the surprise!

For even more Hawaiian flair, add a few teaspoons coconut-flavored rum to the whipped cream.

To toast coconut, sprinkle in ungreased heavy skillet. Cook over medium-low heat 6 to 14 minutes, stirring frequently until browning begins, then stirring constantly until golden brown.

Garnish with additional toasted coconut if desired.
