Easy Icebox Coconut Cream Pie

Need a quick dessert that won’t heat your house up running the oven? Look no further than this easy icebox coconut cream pie! A delicious twist on a classic dessert, my little girl and I had fun making this one up! A chewy graham crust and creamy pie filling, topped with homemade whipped cream and toasted coconut, this will not disappoint!

*Note: I made mine with monkfruit sweetener to make it lower sugar, but that is totally optional! Feel free to go big or go home!

Icebox Coconut Cream Pie Ingredients

We came across this Coconut Cream Jell-O pudding mix on sale at our local Walmart the other week, and I grabbed a few boxes just because it sounded good! This was the inspiration for the whole pie! 

Jello Coconut Cream Powder

The first thing you will want to do is make your crust. Add the graham cracker crumbs and Monkfruit sweetener or sugar to a measuring bowl. Stir it together well.

Sweetener and graham cracker for crust

Pour in your melted butter and mix.

It should look like this when you’re done:

Graham Cracker Crust

Press the crust mixture into your pie dish. In hindsight, I would recommend highly spritzing it with cooking spray. My crust stuck in some spots, and I think that would help! 

Note: Go ahead and place the bowl of your mixer in the freezer right now! This will make the whipped cream way easier in a minute.

Next, let’s toast the coconut so it can be cooling! Spread 1/2 of your sweetened coconut flakes onto a microwave-safe plate.

Sweetened Coconut flakes

Microwave on high for about 3 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds or so, until your coconut looks toasty and brown like the image below. Watch it carefully, because it can go from delightfully toasty to burnt-to-a-crisp in literally 20 seconds! Once it is toasted, remove it from the microwave and allow it to cool while you make the filling.

Measure out your milk:

Add in the coconut cream pudding mix and stir well. Once combined, mix in the remaining 1/2 of the coconut flakes (not toasted) and place in the refrigerator while we do the next step.

Add your whipping cream, powdered sugar (or you can use Monkfruit here, too!)  and vanilla to the cold bowl of your stand mixer. Fit it with the whisk attachment, and turn it up to high!

Easy homemade whipped cream

Whip it until your cream looks like this:

Scoop out half of your whipped cream into a piping bag fitted with a star tip- or whatever you plan to use to squirt whipped cream on! If you are just going to spread it over the entire top, just set aside half in a bowl.

Scrape the remaining whipped cream together in your bowl.

Fold in the pudding mixture from the fridge now!

Crazy easy and OMG so delicious! You honestly could use storebought whipped cream too, if you don’t have a mixer or don’t want to fool with it. I just much prefer the flavor of homemade! 

Like I said, it sort of fell apart when we went to scoop it, but it tasted amazing! If you try it, let me know what you think in the comments!

Equipment

  • Stand Mixer
  • Mixing bowl
  • Pie dish

Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/8 cup sugar or Monkfruit sweetener You can add a bit more if you want, but when I did 1/4 cup it was too sweet!
  • 1 stick Butter, melted
  • 2 boxes Coconut Cream Pudding mix
  • 4 cups milk
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 TBSP powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup sweetened coconut flakes divided

Instructions

  • In a mixing bowl, combine your graham cracker crumbs and sweetener.
  • Add in the melted butter and stir until well combined.
  • Press this mixture into a pie dish (you may want to lightly grease it) and set aside.
  • Spread 1/2 of your coconut flakes on a microwave safe plate.
  • Microwave on high until toasted- about 3 minutes- stirring well every 30 seconds. Set aside to cool.
  • Measure out your milk, and add the instant pudding mixes, stirring well to combine.
  • Stir in the remaining 1/2 of your coconut flakes and place in the refrigerator.
  • Add your heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar and vanilla to the bowl of a stand mixer (you can do this with a hand mixer, too!). A super cold bowl is the trick! Chilling a metal one in the freezer even just for a few minutes will help your whipped cream to set up.
  • Whip on high until stiff peaks form.
  • Divide the whipped cream in half, reserving half for topping the pie. I chose to pipe mine on, but you can always spread instead!
  • Fold the pudding-coconut mixture into the remaining half of the whipped cream.
  • Spread this mixture into your pie crust.
  • Top with whipped cream and toasted coconut, however you would like!
  • Chill in the refrigerator for a couple of hours, until the filling is set.

Those little smiles are worth every penny. If you’re adding a new baby to your family, I 10 out of 10 recommend planning a special date for your bigs before baby arrives 🤍🤍

Our little loves came back from #disneyworld absolutely obsessed with the Lion King! They insisted that we had to change their party theme and I love the way that it turned out. I had fun putting it together for them and they had the best time at their party! I’ll link all of the supplies we used in stories as well as my Amazon storefront (which can be found at the #linkinbio )
