Things You'll Need:
- Coconut pudding
- Cake mix
- Eggs
- Unflavored gelatin
- Powdered sugar
- Bread
- Butter

Step 1
Make use of the failed coconut pudding that is supposed to be your cream pie. Pour it into a bowl and discard the crust. Select another recipe (such as one of the following) to make for dessert.
-
Step 2
Add the pudding to a white or yellow cake mix so that you will have an elegant, rich dessert. Replace the milk called for in the recipe with the same amount of cream pudding. Add 1 egg instead of the 2 to 3 that was originally called for. If the batter is too thick, add a little more pudding to thin it down.
-
Step 3
Use an envelope of unflavored gelatin and add it to the coconut cream pudding. The mixture thickens, but won't have the consistency of a coconut pie. However, this makes a great filling for a cake or doughnut. You can also add powdered sugar to the pudding to make coconut frosting for a coconut cake.

Step 4
Transform thin coconut cream pudding into coconut flavored bread pudding. Fill a casserole dish with pieces of torn bread. Mix 1 egg with the coconut pudding. Pour over the bread pieces, add pats of butter all around the top and bake.
