I wouldn't I don't think the sugar on the nuts will affect the baking at all or the flavor much.

Thanks - I went ahead with the recipe as written. It's in the oven now. Talk about a simple pie!!!

We just had this pie. All I can say is DO NOT even think about making this! I cannot think of another pie that is so so freakin' decadent, horrendously incredibly amazingly GOOD! It's German chocolate cake crossed with heaven!!!

Oh Lordie.....

Sharon! That's like throwing down the gauntlet...issuing a dare! Good thing I don't particularly care for coconut. If I don't tell William about it, I should be safe....LOL!


Re: German Chocolate Pie question - cjs - 04-13-2011

I don't either, but I'm finding there are some dishes I really do like with coconut. My tastes are mellowing, I guess.


Re: German Chocolate Pie question - Gourmet_Mom - 04-13-2011

I like the flavor, just not the texture. Although, it's been years since I tried anything with coconut in it....HMMMM? Oh goodness, I CAN'T be talking myself into this....NOOOOO!
