I tasted this light dessert 7 years ago at a potluck and got the recipe from my mom's dear friend. I've made it dozens of times since for my family and friends, who go wild over it. This is a terrific way to end a heavy meal. -Debby Chiorino, Pt. Hueneme, CA

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1-1/4 cups sweetened shredded coconut
  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 cup slivered almonds
  • 2-2/3 cups cold milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon coconut extract
  • 2 packages (3.4 ounces each) instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 2 cups whipped topping
  • Fresh strawberries, optional

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the first five ingredients; press lightly into a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Bake at 350° for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown, stirring every 10 minutes to form coarse crumbs. Cool.
  2. Divide crumb mixture in half; press half into the same baking pan. In a large bowl, whisk the milk, extract and pudding mixes for 2 minutes. Let stand for 2 minutes or until soft-set.
  3. Fold in whipped topping; spoon over the crust. Top with remaining crumb mixture. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Garnish with fresh strawberries if desired.
