FAQ:

Can I use regular milk instead of coconut milk?
For the best flavor, coconut milk is recommended for a rich, tropical taste. However, you can substitute regular milk or a dairy-free milk alternative for a different flavor.

Can I freeze the Coconut Bliss Cream Pie?
Yes, you can freeze the pie for up to 1 month. However, the texture of the whipped cream topping may change slightly when frozen. It’s best to add the whipped cream and toasted coconut right before serving if freezing.

Can I make the filling ahead of time?
Absolutely! You can make the coconut cream filling up to 2 days ahead of time, and then assemble the pie when you’re ready. Just ensure the pie chills thoroughly before serving.
