Pistachio Pudding Filling
  • 1 3.4oz box Instant Pistachio Pudding
  • 1 cup milk
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup coconut, shredded and sweetened flakes

  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
Toppings (optional)

Instructions
  1. Mix melted butter and graham cracker crumbs until combined. Press crust into a 9” or 10” pie plate, and set aside.

  4. Mix softened cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract together until well combined. Add in pistachio pudding, coconut, and pineapple. Mix until combined.
  5. Fold in half of the whipped cream mixture (about 1 1/2 cups) into the cream cheese mixture.
  6. Pour the pistachio pudding cream filling into the graham cracker crust.
  7. Spread the remaining whipped cream on top, and sprinkle with toasted coconut and chopped pistachios, if desired.
  8. Chill for at least 4 hours.
  9. Enjoy!
Recipe Notes

*Toast coconut by spreading it an even layer on a sheet pan and baking it in the oven at 325 for 6-7 minutes, or until golden brown. Alternatively, you can toast it in a pan on the stove on low heat.
