Pappy Sez: A few good n's. De eriginal recipe sed to use a 9" pie pan. I sed, uh uh, I uses a tall Pyrex bowl that is 3" tall and 7" wide. It will hold all de goody's de 9" pie pan will. Purtyer, too. And, I has a lid to save de left o'ers.
I uses Key Limes instid of plain. Much more lip pucker in 'em. I lak to pucker my lips. "Ya puts de limes inna coconut and drank it all up". Dat tune done been in my haid, all days.

I puts the half moon slices of Kiwi Fruit around the edge of the cake lak a fence around a sematary. Then in a corncentric circle, slowly sprankle a line of 'tachios. Then on each side of 'tachios, sprankle a line of Toasted Coconutties. Dis gives each slice bits o' both nuts. It's OK to slightly sprankle o'er de 'tachios, jes be careful not to hide too much of the green 'tachios.
I's could not near wait fer the dang thing to set up. So here's a slice wit some Black Silk cuppa jo. Alls dem flavors running 'round yo mouf liken a dang fool chicken wit dey head cuts off. OOOOWEEE, dems some fine eats, right dere!
