Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Crust

  1. In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar until well combined.
  2. Press the mixture evenly into a 9-inch pie dish, ensuring it’s firm and compact.
  3. Place the crust in the refrigerator to chill while preparing the filling.

Step 2: Make the Filling

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the coconut cream pudding mix, vanilla pudding mix, and cold milk until smooth and thickened (about 2-3 minutes).
  2. Fold in the shredded coconut and half of the whipped cream, blending gently until well incorporated.

Step 3: Assemble the Pie

  1. Pour the filling into the chilled crust, spreading it evenly.
  2. Top the filling with the remaining whipped cream, smoothing it out or piping it decoratively.
  3. Sprinkle the toasted coconut evenly over the top for a beautiful finish.

Step 4: Chill and Serve

  1. Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until fully set.
  2. Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy the creamy, tropical flavors with every bite!

Tips for Success

  1. Toasting Coconut: For an extra layer of flavor, toast the shredded coconut in a dry skillet over medium heat, stirring frequently until golden brown.
  2. Graham Crust Alternative: Use a pre-made pie crust for an even quicker option.
  3. Whipped Cream Substitute: Store-bought whipped topping works perfectly if you’re short on time.

Give it a try and prepare to receive rave reviews—this creamy, dreamy pie is sure to become a favorite! Happy no-baking!
