Cocoanut Potato Pie.

Three eggs, one large potato, one half cup cocoanut (grated), one pint milk, one tablespoonful butter, sugar to taste, and a little salt. Boil and mash the potato, and add the sugar, butter and salt, then the beaten eggs, and lastly the milk, in which part of the cocoanut has been soaked. Reserve the white of an egg for frosting; add to it the rest of the cocoanut, and spread a little red sugar over the top.
