Ingredients:

• First layer:
• 1 3 oz pkg. softened cream cheese
• 1 Tbsp sugar
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1/2 tsp grated lime rind
• 2 Tbsp lime juice
• 1/4 cup coconut
• 1 8 oz container of whipped topping
• 2 graham cracker crusts
• Topping:
• 2 ripe mangos
• 1 Tbsp sugar
• 2 tsp lime juice
• Optional: Mango and lime slices, and toasted coconut for decoration
• 1 cup whipped topping

Method

Beat cream cheese and sugar, and gradually beat in milk. Fold in lime rind, lime juice, & coconut. Set aside 1 cup of the whipped topping for use in next layer; fold remaining topping into coconut mixture. Put into the crusts, filling each 1/2 way. Put into the freezer. Peel the mango, mash and mix mango pulp, sugar, lime juice and reserved 1 cup whipped topping in the blender. Put mango mixture onto the first layer and put the pies, covered, into the freezer for at least 4 hours.

Notes: Serves 16--or 8 islanders--this is such a light delicious dessert that some people may want 2 portions! To intensify the mango flavor, add 1 Tblp. of mango nectar to the top layer. Can substitute other tropical flavors for the mango.

Number of servings: 8
