   • Chop up the mandarin orange segments.
   • Lightly press the orange pieces and the crushed pineapple between layers of paper towels to remove any excess moisture, ensuring your pie isn’t too wet.

2. Mix the Pudding:

   • In a medium-sized bowl, combine the milk and the vanilla instant pudding mix. Mix thoroughly until well incorporated.

3. Whip the Cream:

   • Whip the cream until stiff peaks form, creating a light and airy texture.

4. Combine Ingredients:

   • Gently fold the whipped cream into the pudding mixture until fully combined.
   • Add in the coconut flakes, folding them in gently to maintain the fluffiness of the mixture.
   • Incorporate the chopped mandarin oranges and crushed pineapple, stirring until evenly distributed throughout the creamy filling.

5. Assemble the Pie:

   • Pour the creamy mixture into the prepared graham cracker crumb crust, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.

6. Chill Time:

   • Cover the pie with plastic wrap, ensuring it’s well-sealed, and place it in the refrigerator.
   • Allow the pie to chill for at least 6 hours or, for optimal results, overnight, until the filling is firm enough to slice.

7. Serve and Enjoy:

   • Once chilled, remove the pie from the refrigerator and uncover.
   • Garnish with additional whipped topping and coconut flakes for an extra touch of indulgence.

8. Storage:

   • Keep any leftovers covered and stored in the fridge to maintain freshness.

Tips:

• For a tropical twist, try adding a sprinkle of toasted coconut on top before serving.
• Ensure the pie is thoroughly chilled before slicing to achieve clean, neat cuts.
• Experiment with different crust options such as a traditional pastry crust or even a cookie crust for added flavor variety.
