Transcript:

Violet sits on the grass next to her pail and shovel. She sits in front of a baking pan and says,"These are very special mud pies...I've sprinkled them with coconut"

She approaches a smiling Charlie Brown with one of her pies. She says,"Here, Charlie Brown, have a mud pie! Pardon my fingers"

He shudders and exclaims,"Phooey! This tastes awful!!"

She looks at the pie he has dropped on the floor. He explains,"I'm sorry, Violet, but I just don't like coconut!"

The first time coconut is mentioned

Do you know if they were colourized by Schulz, or someone else?

Definitely someone else. Schulz died in 2000, and here's what the fandom page says about the coloring:

Peanuts Begins is the name of a series of Peanuts re-run strips begun in 2015. Syndicator Universal Uclick began publishing the title with a new edition each day starting on January 5, 2015 with the first Peanuts strip. Each day has a new comic with the intention of colorizing and publishing each of the 17,897 strips. This runs alongside the Classic Peanuts series which was begun in 2000 by United Feature Syndicate to print older strips in newspapers.
