Ingredients

Directions

Add water to pie crust mix in medium bowl; stir until mixture forms a ball. Place on lightly floured surface; roll out to 13-inch circle. Press onto bottom and up side of 10-inch tart or 9-inch pie plate. Refrigerate 30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 375Â°F. Spread coconut onto ungreased baking sheet. Bake 6 minutes, or until lightly toasted, stirring occasionally. Cool.
Line pie crust with aluminum foil; fill with pie weights or dry beans. Bake 15 minutes. Place on wire rack; remove foil and pie weights. Reduce oven temperature to 350Â°F.
Mix sugar, flour, baking powder and salt in small bowl until well blended; set aside. Beat eggs, half-and-half, butter and vanilla in large bowl with wire whisk until well blended. Add sugar mixture; mix well. Stir in coconut. Place crust on baking sheet. Add filling.
Bake 45 minutes, or until crust is golden brown and filling is set in center. Cool completely. Serve at room temperature or refrigerate to serve chilled. Cut into 12 slices to serve.
