Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Shredded unsweetened coconut
• 1 cup Macadamia nuts
• 1 cup Graham cracker crumbs
• 2 tablespoons Sugar
• 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 1 can (14 ounces) Sweetened condensed milk
• 0.5 cup Lime juice, freshly squeezed
• 1 tablespoon Lime zest
• 4 large Egg yolks
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
• 0.25 cup Toasted shredded coconut (for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

In a food processor, combine shredded coconut, macadamia nuts, graham cracker crumbs, and sugar. Pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 3

Pour in the melted butter and pulse again until the mixture comes together and holds its shape when pressed.

Step 4

Press the crust mixture evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Use the back of a measuring cup to smooth and compact the crust.

Step 5

Bake the crust for 10 minutes, or until lightly golden. Remove from oven and let it cool while preparing the filling.

Step 6

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

Step 7

Pour the lime filling into the cooled crust and spread evenly.

Step 8

Bake the pie for 15-20 minutes, or until the filling is set but still slightly jiggly in the center.

Step 9

Remove the pie from the oven and cool at room temperature for 1 hour, then transfer to the refrigerator to chill for at least 4 hours or overnight.

Step 10

Just before serving, whip the heavy cream and powdered sugar together in a mixing bowl until stiff peaks form.

Step 11

Spread or pipe the whipped cream over the chilled pie and sprinkle with toasted coconut for garnish.

Step 12

Slice, serve, and enjoy your Coconut Lime Pie!
