No Bake Coconut Cream Pie

This NO BAKE Coconut Cream Pie is the simplest pie to prepare!

I don’t usually eat a lot of coconut, but this pie looked so good with the coconut toasted and sitting on top of the luscious cream, I had to try it.

And I wasn’t disappointed. You won’t be either!

Being No Bake is just one of the reasons this recipe is so fast and simple to prepare.

Thesae are the INGREDIENTS You will need:

  • 2 Packages 3.4 oz. each JELL-O Vanilla Flavor Instant Pudding
  • 2 cups milk, cold
  • 2 cups thawed COOL WHIP Whipped Topping, divided
  • 1 cup BAKER’S ANGEL FLAKE Coconut, divided
  • 1 6 oz ready-to-use graham cracker crumb crust

These are the INSTRUCTIONS For preparation:

  • BEAT pudding mixes and milk in large bowl with whisk 2 min. Stir in 1 cup COOL WHIP and 3/4 cup coconut; pour into crust.
  • REFRIGERATE 4 hours or until set. Meanwhile toast remaining coconut, if desired.
  • HOW TO TOAST COCONUT: Heat oven to 350°F. Spread coconut in shallow pan. Bake 7 to 10 min. or until lightly browned, stirring frequently.

Whether you start with my Easy Basic Graham Cracker Crust or a pre-pared version from you local grocery store you are on track to a delicious dessert.

A little bit of cold milk, some vanilla pudding and coconut will finish this pie.

This recipe helps you serve up a delicious classic Coconut Cream Pie your family and guests will love.

I have taken this pie many times to gatherings, bake sales and Church outings.

It travels well and you can easily use a disposable pan. No dish to forget to take home!

My grandmother liked to tell my kids that she taught me to make this pie when I was “knee high to a grasshopper”.

I always thought that was something she made up. As I gre up I came to realize it was something she said a lot.

Everytime I put this pie together I remember standing on a chair and carefully holding the bowl as I mixed the filling by hand.

I could barely keep from spilling that bowl on the floor.

I tried hard to keep control because to me it was liquid gold.

And the memory of that time with grandma will stay with me forever.

Do any of you have fond memories of baking when you were a child?

    OMG! I think I’ve died and gone to Coconut Cream Pie Heaven. I’ve made this pie twice in a row now and plan to keep on making it. It’s so good and so easy to make. Thank you Marilyn for sharing the recipe. Now I’m wondering if I could substitute chocolate instant pudding and of course leave out the coconut to make my hubby’s favorite pie. Chocolate Cream Pie. I don’t even think I would need to shave any chocolate on the top and he’d be happy.

    Mmmm, cream pies are my favorite! I’m not usually a pie eater (my favorite food is literally cake!), but cream pies are a big exception for me.

    That sounds so good! I love coconut but rarely use it in anything since my boys don’t like the texture. I might just get away with it in this though. Pinned.

      I don;t like having to chew it too much so I use a light amount of coconut. Then the kids add more at the table. LOL. Glad you like it Joanne. Have a lovely week.

    No bake definitely sounds good right now. This has been the hottest Summer that I ever remember here in Utah. Even though we have not had that many days above 100 degrees, most of the days have been in the high 90s. This pie sounds so good. This is one that I am going to have to try.

      Nope. No cooking. I just recently added the tag no bake. I guess I am going to need to actually USE it! Your comment reminded me. Always something to do! Enjoy Clearissa.
