- For the crust: Crush or grind the graham crackers. Add the melted butter to the crackers. Once mixed, press the mixture into a 9-inch pie pan with back of a spoon. Make sure the crust is even throughout. Place the crust in the refrigerator.
- For the filling: Bring the milk, flour, sugar, salt and beaten eggs to a boil on low to medium heat, stirring occasionally. Once the mixture starts boiling, remove from the heat; the consistency should be thick.
- Add the coconut and the vanilla and blend together. Then pour in the chilled pie crust. Place the pie in the refrigerator, 10 to 20 minutes.
- For the topping: Whip the cream until the consistency is thick. Add the coconut and sugar. Put the mixture over the chilled filling and then sprinkle extra coconut on top!
- Chill for at least 2 hours
