  2      cups          macadamia nuts -- coarsely chopped
    1/3  cup           shredded coconut
  1      9 inch        unbaked pie shell
  4                    eggs

Directions: 1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).  Press coconut
into bottom and sides of unbaked pie shell.  If macadamia nuts are salted,
place in colander and rinse with hot water.  Drain well; dry thoroughly with
paper towel.  2 Combine eggs, corn syrup, sugar, vanilla, and salt in large
bowl and mix well.  Fold in macadamia nuts.  Pour into pie shell.  3 Bake for
15 minutes.  Reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C), and
continue baking until top is brown and filling is set; this will take about 30
more minutes.  Let pie cool.  4 To make Topping: Whip cream to soft peaks.

serve, passing coconut cream separately.  Makes 1 - 9 inch pie
