  • 2 boxes (3.4 oz each) instant coconut cream pudding mix
  • 3 cups half-and-half or whole milk

Instructions

  1. Prepare the crust: In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and sugar; mix in melted butter until well combined. Press firmly into the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. Make the cream cheese layer: Beat softened cream cheese until smooth; gradually add powdered sugar and coconut extract while mixing. Fold in one container of whipped topping until fluffy.
