    Brenda, there's a no weep meringue recipe here:

    I haven't tried it, though. Also, the recipe I'm using is topped with whipped cream.

    Kraft has some excellent recipes -- a bunch, actually. I wanted to make a scratch version first, but I suspect some Jell-O pudding versions will follow suit. If I make the scratch version, I can compare the two.

    My husband loves coconut cream pie. I have made one every Thanksgiving and Christmas since I met him. I finally perfected the recipe when I used cook & serve vanilla pudding...lol! So much easier than making a pudding. I'm still working on getting the meringue to not weep...any ideas? I seal it to the edges but it still weeps at times.

    I had those cinnamon chips once. Unfortunately, I ended up eating them all straight from the bag before I could make anything with them!
