1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2

Place butter, pecans, and coconut in a large shallow baking pan and stir to coat.

Bake for 5-10 minutes or until golden brown. Watch carefully. It can turn brown quickly if you aren't watching. Cool mixture.
4

Meanwhile combine cream cheese and powdered sugar in a small bowl and beat until light and fluffy with a mixer. Make sure your cream cheese is softened or you will get lumps.
5

Fold in whipped cream.

Pour into baked pie crust and spread evenly.
7

Top with coconut mixture and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving.

Option: You can even use a pre-made graham cracker crust instead to save even more time.
