For an extra layer of flavor, toast the flaked coconut lightly before adding it to the filling. If the pie crust edges begin to brown too quickly, cover them with foil or use a pie shield. The filling should be set but still slightly jiggly in the center when removed from the oven; it will continue to set as it cools. For a richer flavor, use brown butter instead of melted butter.
