- In a large bowl, cream together 3 large eggs and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Gradually whisk in ½ cup (1 stick) melted unsalted butter.
- Add 1 (12-ounce) can of evaporated milk and 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract. Mix well.
- Stir in 2 cups sweetened shredded coconut.
- Pour the mixture into an unbaked 9-inch deep-dish pie crust.
