Instructions:
-
In a large mixer bowl, prepare the whipped topping mix with 1 cup of milk according to the directions on the package.
-
Once the whipped topping mix is ready, add the remaining milk and the instant vanilla pudding mix to the bowl.
-
Blend the ingredients together until well combined, then beat at high speed for 2 minutes, scraping the sides of the bowl occasionally to ensure everything is fully incorporated.
-
After the pudding mixture has been thoroughly beaten, gently fold in the shredded coconut until it is evenly distributed throughout the filling.
-
Carefully spoon the coconut pudding mixture into the prepared graham cracker crust, spreading it out evenly with a spatula to create a smooth surface.
-
Cover the pie with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and refrigerate it for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the filling to set and the flavors to meld together.
-
Once fully chilled and set, remove the Coconut Dream Pie from the refrigerator and slice it into generous portions.
-
Serve the pie slices on dessert plates and enjoy the delightful combination of creamy coconut filling and buttery graham cracker crust with friends and family.
Notes:
- For an extra touch of indulgence, top each slice of Coconut Dream Pie with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of toasted coconut flakes before serving.
- Store any leftover pie in the refrigerator, covered, for up to 3 days. Ensure it is tightly wrapped to prevent it from absorbing any unwanted flavors from the fridge.
- Feel free to customize this recipe by adding chopped nuts or a drizzle of chocolate sauce for a delicious variation on this classic coconut cream pie.
