1/2 package (15 ounces) refrigerated pie crust (1 crust)
1 container (12 ounces) light frozen whipped topping, thawed, divided
1 container (8 ounces) reduced-fat sour cream
2 limes, divided
1/2 cup sweetened flaked coconut, toasted, divided
1 package (3.4 ounces) vanilla instant pudding and pie filling

1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Let pie crust stand at room temperature 15 minutes. Gently unfold crust onto lightly floured surface. Roll to an 111/2-inch circle. Place crust in Deep Dish Pie Plate, pressing dough into bottom and up sides. Prick bottom and sides using fork. Bake 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Cool completely.

2. Reserve 1 cup of the whipped topping for garnish. In large bowl, whisk remaining whipped topping and sour cream until blended. Zest one lime to measure 1 teaspoon zest; juice to measure 2 tablespoons juice. Add lime zest and juice to sour cream mixture; whisk until smooth. Add 1/4 cup of the coconut and pudding mix; whisk until well blended. (Mixture will be very thick.) Immediately spoon filling into crust; spread evenly.

3. Sprinkle top of pie with remaining coconut. Garnish pie with reserved whipped topping. Slice remaining lime; cut slices in half and place between each rosette. Top each rosette with a cherry, if desired. Cover; refrigerate at least 30 minutes before serving.

Chocolate Cherry Mousse Pie - absolutely to Die FOR! Excellent, tasty, showy.

Look on CC under Celebrations recipes - Easy as Pie.

Jane,
THIS SOUNDS SO GOOD!! I am going to have to try this! I am not usually a dessert person but I do love to splurge sometimes through my pregnancy!! And everyone at church is always very curious to see what I will bring for dessert on Sunday.
Thanks for the idea.

Debbie :D
 
LOL!!! You wanted a dessert--sorry--mine looked good anyway!!! LOL!!!
 
I have been drooling over that Peanut Butter and Jelly Pie in the All the Best for a while!!

That is SOOOOOO good! It's not super peanutty (like eating a spoonful of PB), but you can tell there's PB in it.

I took this to a pie-themed open house my Longaberger lady hosted a couple of years ago and it was a big hit.
 
I may have to bust this out today as my 26 week treat!! I am in the 3rd trimester next week! Yahhh!!

I give you permission!;)
 
I have to go dig my cookbook out of my kit and see if I have the ingredients!
 
hmmm.... strawberries, PB, cream cheese, pie crust, strawberry jam, peanuts... I'm sure there are a couple of other things, but those are the biggies.
 
I don't have a lot of that! Maybe I need to wait until tomorrow when I can get to the store...:(
 
And now that I think if it, I think there's some cool whip in it, too.

Sorry, dear. You really sounded like you were excited to make it. :(

Go find your book and make a grocery list...
 
I wish I had one of those grocery delivery places here!!
 
Just remember, don't make it with recalled peanut butter! :)
 
We only buy Jif because I get it on WIC... it was only on Peter Pan right??
 
I think so.

Recall was Peter Pan and Great Value - Jif was safe.
 
Thanks- I had to go out anyway because my sister just had nasal surgery and she tried to work today. She didn't make it very long and needed a ride home. I ended up going to burger king and getting a strawberry milkshake so that fixed the craving for now. I am trying to recruit both hostesses from this weekend so I have my work cut out for me when I close both shows tonight!
