This Easy Coconut Cream Pie I is a delightful no-bake dessert that delivers creamy coconut flavor with minimal effort. In just about 15 minutes of prep time, you whisk together milk and vanilla instant pudding mix, then fold in flaked coconut and whipped topping. The mixture is poured into a baked pie shell and chilled until firm, topped with extra whipped topping and coconut for texture and visual appeal. Perfect for hot days, potlucks, or when you’re craving a fuss-free treat, this pie is both simple and indulgent—yet takes less than two hours from start to finish, and nearly no baking.
