Coconut Cream Pie II Recipe

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

In a shallow dish, mix together the cream cheese, cinnamon, salt and shortening.

Spread cream cheese mixture into a 9 inch pie pan. Stir together the whipped topping, sour cream, cream cheese mixture and parsley. Roll the chilled pie crust into a 6 inch cylinder. Place approximately 2 slices of cream cheese mixture onto each edge of the cylinder. Roll up cream cheese mixture to seal. Brush the edges of the cream cheese mixture with a pastry brush.

Place cream cheese mixture on top of pie, spreading half way to the edge. Arrange sour cream over the top of the pie. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center of the pie comes out clean. A toothpick inserted into the center should only come out clean. Cool before removing pie. Keep warm.
