Notes
- For a graham cracker crust use 1 package of graham crackers, crushed. Combine with 5 Tablespoons melted salted butter and 3 Tablespoons sugar. Press into the bottom of a pie tin.
- Prepare your pie crust according to package or recipe instructions. Make sure it is pre baked and cooled for this recipe.
- Make sure to fold the Cool Whip in gently to maintain the optimal smooth and light texture.
- You can use sweetened or unsweetened coconut flakes in this recipe.
- You don't have to toast the coconut for the topping. Topping it with regular coconut will still be an easy way to decorate the pie.
