Ingredients

Scale

Pudding Mixture

3 ounce box instant coconut cream Jell-O pudding
2 cups whole milk

Dip Base

8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 cup powdered sugar
8 ounce container Cool Whip topping, thawed
1 cup sweetened coconut flakes

For Serving

Toasted coconut flakes
Graham crackers, Nilla Wafers, or banana slices

Instructions

Prepare the pudding: In a large bowl, combine the instant coconut cream pudding powder with 2 cups of whole milk. Using a whisk, vigorously mix for about 2 minutes until the pudding thickens significantly. Set the mixture aside to rest.
Make the cream cheese mixture: In a separate large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together with an electric mixer until smooth and fluffy. Add the thawed Cool Whip and continue mixing until fully incorporated. Gently fold in the sweetened coconut flakes to distribute evenly.
Combine pudding and cream cheese mixtures: Carefully fold the prepared pudding mixture into the cream cheese mixture until well combined, ensuring a smooth and creamy consistency.
Chill the dip: Cover the bowl and refrigerate the combined dip for 1 to 2 hours to allow it to thicken and set completely, enhancing the flavors and texture.
Serve with toppings: Before serving, sprinkle toasted coconut flakes over the top of the dip for added texture and flavor. Serve chilled alongside graham crackers, Nilla Wafers, or banana slices for dipping.

Notes

For best results, ensure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature before mixing to avoid lumps.
Chilling time can be extended for a firmer dip consistency if desired.
Feel free to substitute sweetened coconut flakes with unsweetened if you prefer less sweetness.
This dip is ideal for parties, potlucks, or as a fun dessert alternative.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
