Chit Chat and Dessert ~ April : )

Happy April everyone! Smile

What warm weather we had for April 1st! I turned my air conditioner back on. It's 58 this morning but supposed to be back up to the mid 80's this afternoon.

I made this pie over the weekend. I have wanted to make it ever since I saw Clinton make it on the Chew in December. His grandma is 92 and still walks two miles a day!

I kept the whipped cream and pears separate and added them to individual pieces. I poached my pears but they turned brown on the under side.

My sons gave this pie a score of 7 out of 10. They said it was good but there are other pies that they like more. I would give it an 8! My husband said it was still good even though it had coconut in the crust. The crust only took about 20 minutes in the oven.

I hope everyone has a great week!

Below is the link to the recipe. Once you are on that page, you can click on the recipe and watch the video of Clinton making the pie and talking to his grandma on the phone.
