Description

This Coconut Dream Pie is the ultimate retro comfort dessert, featuring a rich vanilla pudding filling studded with sweet flaked coconut. The filling is light and airy, thanks to the addition of instant pudding mix and cold milk, creating a texture that melts in your mouth. It is assembled in a pre-baked pie crust and chilled until set, making it a perfect make-ahead treat for potlucks or family gatherings. The subtle vanilla flavor pairs beautifully with the coconut, offering a tropical twist on a classic American staple. It is simple to prepare, requires no baking of the filling, and delivers an indulgent, smooth finish that everyone will love.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Prepare the whipped topping using one envelope of Dream Whip, 1 cup of cold milk, and the vanilla extract according to package directions.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the two packages of instant vanilla pudding mix with the remaining 1 3/4 cups of cold milk.
  3. Beat the pudding and milk mixture on high speed for 2 minutes until it is thick and creamy.
  4. Gently fold the prepared whipped topping into the pudding mixture until fully incorporated.
  5. Stir in the flaked coconut until evenly distributed throughout the filling.
  6. Spoon the mixture into a pre-baked pie shell, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  7. Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until the filling is completely set.
  8. Garnish with additional flaked coconut or a dollop of whipped cream if desired before serving.
