Grapefruit may be a surprising pie filling, but this dessert has been a hit at our house for years. The marshmallows and coconut reduce some of the grapefruit's tartness. Ingredients:
32 large marshmallows |
1/2 cup grapefruit juice, divided |
3 large red grapefruit |
1 cup heavy whipping cream, whipped |
1 pastry shell (9 inches), baked |
1/4 cup flaked coconut, toasted |
Directions:
1. In a heavy saucepan, combine the marshmallows and 1/4 cup grapefruit juice. Cook and stir over low heat until marshmallows are melted. Cool to room temperature.
2. Peel the grapefruit and cut into sections (about 2-1/2 cups). Stir the grapefruit, whipped cream and remaining grapefruit juice into marshmallow mixture. Pour into crust. Sprinkle with coconut. Refrigerate for 3 hours or until set. Yield: 6-8 servings.
