Ingredients

• 1 cup Sweetened shredded coconut
• 1.25 cups Graham cracker crumbs
• 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 14 ounces Sweetened condensed milk
• 0.5 cup Coconut milk
• 0.5 cup Lime juice (freshly squeezed)
• 1.5 teaspoons Lime zest
• 4 Large egg yolks
• 1 cup Whipping cream
• 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

Toast the shredded coconut by spreading it on a baking sheet and baking for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool.

Step 3

In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, 3 tablespoons of granulated sugar, 1/2 cup of toasted coconut, and melted butter until well combined.

Step 4

Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie pan to form the crust. Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden. Let cool completely.

Step 5

In a large bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, coconut milk, lime juice, lime zest, and egg yolks until smooth and fully combined.

Step 6

Pour the custard mixture into the prepared crust and spread evenly.

Step 7

Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the custard is set but still slightly wobbly in the center. Remove from the oven and let it cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until fully chilled and set.

Step 8

Just before serving, make the whipped cream topping: In a mixing bowl, beat the whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract with a hand mixer or stand mixer on high speed until soft peaks form.

Step 9

Spread or pipe the whipped cream over the chilled pie and sprinkle the remaining toasted coconut on top as garnish.

Step 10

Serve immediately and enjoy this tropical delight!
