For Yolanda Powers of Decatur, Alabama, the best gifts come from the heart - and her kitchen. When her four kids were young, she began baking cakes and pies for gifts. Yolanda attributes her baking passion to growing up in a family of great cooks. This coconut pie makes a nice gift packaged right in the disposable pan it's baked in.
