- Meanwhile, cook pudding according to directions on box and add in coconut and nuts, stir well. Pour while warm into pie crust. Refrigeratein refrigerator till set. Once chilled, top with regular whipped topping (like Cold Whip). For more of a restaurant effect put topping into a cake decorating bag with tip and pipe on. Sprinkle top with a few chocolate chips, coconut, and nuts for a finishing touch.
- Most people preferred the German Chocolate Pie with whipped cream, but if you would prefer a meringue topping, beat egg whites, vanilla, and cream of tartar till soft peaks form. Gradually add in sugar beating till stiff, glossy peaks form and sugar is dissolved. Spread over warm filling, for which Marie Callender's effect leave a smidge of filling visible around the edge, and do not forget to sprinkle the chips, coconut, and nuts on top. Bake at 350 degrees for 12 to 15 min or possibly till meringue is golden brown. Refrigeratein fridge.
