Coconut Cream Pie

 I made this easy coconut cream pie for Dave's birthday - and I do mean easy! 

  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 1 (5 oz.) package instant vanilla pudding mix 
  • 1 1/2 cups flaked coconut, divided
  • 1 (8 oz) container cool whip, thawed, divided
  • 1 (9") pie shell, baked
1. Whisk together milk and pudding mix in a large bowl until mixture starts to thicken, about 2 minutes. Fold in 1 cup coconut and 1/2 of the cool whip until well combined. Pour filling into the baked pie crust. 

2. Spread remaining cool whip over filling. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup coconut. Refrigerate pie and served chilled. 

My notes:

- I used coconut pudding and didn't measure how much coconut I added, a big handful
- I used unsweetened coconut flakes, and toasted the flakes that I put on the top (put in a baking dish and bake for just a couple minutes until it starts to turn light brown - watch carefully as it burns quickly!)
-I used a premade graham cracker crust
