📝 Preparation Steps
1
Toast 1 cup of coconut in a medium skillet over low heat. Stir almost constantly until the coconut begins to brown. Remove from heat to a plate or bowl and let cool.
2
Whisk pudding and milk in a medium bowl for about ⏱️ 2 minutes. (There may still be some lumps from the coconut in the mix.) Set aside to firm up.
3
Make the crust: place the shortbread cookies in a large gallon size resealable bag. Seal the bag except for 1” (to allow air to escape) and roll the bag with a rolling pin to crush the cookies. Reserve ¼ cup of the crumbs for garnish, then pour the melted butter into the bag, squeezing it to work it through the crumbs. Press the crust into a 9x9 pan.
4
Place cream cheese in a large bowl. Beat it with a hand mixer for ⏱️ 1 minute, until it’s smooth. Add the set pudding and mix until mostly no lumps remain.
5
Stir the coconut extract, if using, into the tub of Cool Whip. Fold half the tub of Cool Whip into the pudding mixture, along with 2 cups of coconut. Spread over crust. Top with remaining whipped topping and sprinkle with reserved crushed cookies and toasted coconut.
