Instructions

Start with the pudding.
- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk the coconut cream pudding mix with cold milk for about 2 minutes until it thickens up. Set it aside to finish setting while you prep the next step.
Mix up the creamy base.
- In a separate large bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth and fluffy. Once it’s well mixed, gently fold in the thawed Cool Whip until everything is light and airy.
Add the coconut goodness.
- Stir in the sweetened shredded coconut to give the dip some tropical texture.
Bring it all together.
- Add the pudding mixture into the cream cheese mixture and stir until everything is smooth and fully combined.
Chill time.
- Cover the bowl and place it in the fridge for at least 1 to 2 hours. This helps the dip set and gives it that perfect thick, spoonable consistency.
Serve it up!
- Just before serving, sprinkle some toasted coconut flakes over the top for a little extra flair. Scoop it up with graham crackers, vanilla wafers, or banana slices—and watch it disappear!

Notes

Tips & Tricks:

Want to make it ahead? This dip can chill overnight—just give it a quick stir before serving.
No Cool Whip? Use stabilized whipped cream as a sub, but make sure it holds up well when folded in.
Customize it! Stir in crushed pineapple or top with a maraschino cherry for a fun tropical twist.
