Description

Ingredients

• 2 cups of nilla wafers, crushed
• 2 tablespoons butter, melted
• 2 Litres (just shy of 2 quarts if youre in the U.S.) of vanilla ice cream, softened slightly
• 2 cups (or 16 ounces in the U.S.) of whipped cream, I made homemade but you can use store bought, divided
• 1 packet of crystal light pink lemonade (4.5 g)
• 1 to 2 cups of coconut (to taste, I like more)
• 1 to 2 drops of red food colouring.

Directions

• Crush the nilla wafers in a food processor by pulsing until they resemble fine crumbs. Add the melted butter, pulse again.
• Press into a pie plate.
• In a stand mixer combine the ice cream, ½ of the whipped cream and crystal light packet. Whisk on high until well combined. If you want it to be a darker pink you can add some food colouring. Pour into the pie plate and smooth out. Place in the freezer for about 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
• Pull out the pie about 10 minutes before serving and top with the remaining ½ of the whipped cream. If desired top with the pink coconut.
• Pink Coconut Optional topping:
• You can make the coconut pink fairly easily. Start with a small amount of coconut on a glass bowl. Add 1 drop of food colouring and mix thoroughly, then add more coconut until you get the colour you want to achieve. Toss over top of the pie just before serving.
• Serve with a big old pretty in pink smile!
