Ingredients:
- 1 (9-inch) pre-baked pie crust (graham cracker or pastry, your choice)
- 1 package (5 oz) instant vanilla pudding mix
- 1 cup cold milk
- 1½ cups shredded sweetened coconut
- 1 container (8 oz) frozen whipped topping (Cool Whip or similar), thawed
- Optional garnish: toasted coconut, whipped cream, maraschino cherry
Formation & Method (Step-by-step Instructions):
Step 1: Prepare the Base
Start by placing your pre-baked pie crust in the refrigerator to chill slightly. This helps it set up for the creamy filling that’s about to come.
Step 2: Make the Coconut Pudding Mixture
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the vanilla pudding mix and 1 cup of cold milk until smooth and thickened (about 2 minutes). Stir in the shredded coconut, saving a little for topping later.
Step 3: Fold in the Whipped Topping
Gently fold in the thawed whipped topping until the mixture is well-blended, light, and fluffy. Be gentle to keep the filling airy and smooth.
Step 4: Assemble the Pie
Spoon the coconut cream mixture into the chilled crust. Use a spatula to smooth the top evenly. Sprinkle with toasted coconut for a golden finish, or decorate with whipped cream and a cherry for a romantic touch.
Step 5: Chill and Serve
Cover and refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results. Slice and serve cold — each bite a melt-in-your-mouth tropical kiss!
