Love coconut cream pie but want something quick, fun, and shareable? This Coconut Cream Pie Dip gives you all the creamy, coconutty goodness of the classic dessert — but in dip form! Perfect for parties, potlucks, or cozy movie nights.

Ingredients:

(Serves 6–8)

1 package (3.4 oz) instant coconut cream pudding mix
1 1/2 cups cold milk
1/2 cup sweetened shredded coconut (plus extra for topping)
1 cup whipped topping (like Cool Whip) or homemade whipped cream
4 oz cream cheese, softened (optional for a tangy, creamy base)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract

👉 For serving:

Graham crackers
Vanilla wafers
Fresh fruit (pineapple chunks, strawberries, banana slices)
Shortbread cookies

Instructions:

🥣 1. Mix the pudding:

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the coconut cream pudding mix and cold milk until smooth. Let sit for 5 minutes to thicken.

🧁 2. Make it creamy:

(Optional) In another bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth.
Fold in the thickened pudding, vanilla, and shredded coconut.
Gently fold in the whipped topping until light and fluffy.

🥥 3. Top & chill:

Spoon into a serving bowl and top with extra coconut shreds — toasted, if you like!
Chill for 30–60 minutes for best flavor and texture (optional but recommended).

🌴 To Toast Coconut (Optional):

Spread shredded coconut on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5–8 minutes, stirring occasionally until golden brown.

Tips & Variations:

✔️ Use instant vanilla pudding + extra coconut if you can’t find coconut cream pudding.
✔️ Add a spoonful of crushed pineapple for a tropical twist!
✔️ Want it fancier? Serve in mini dessert cups layered with crushed graham crackers.

Creamy, dreamy, coconut heaven in every bite – and no baking required! 🥥💛 Want a dairy-free version? I’ve got you!
