How to Make Use of a Failed Coconut Cream Pie

Your coconut cream pie has failed to set up. Now, you wonder what you should do. Dinner is in a couple of hours and you need a dessert. The best idea is to go a different direction. Don't make a pie; simply make another dessert.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Coconut pudding
• Cake mix
• Eggs
• Unflavored gelatin
• Powdered sugar
• Bread
• Butter

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.

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.

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.

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.

Tips & Warnings

• Coconut pudding can make cookies, cake, frosting and even candy. Just use your imagination and you can come up with a great dessert quickly.
• Resist the temptation to use the coconut cream pudding for a beauty treatment. Cooked pudding is not what you need for your skin.
