This coconut crust is a delicious twist from the usual vanilla wafers. For ease and speed, I combined cold butter, flour and sugar in the food processor and processed until blended. I then added the coconut with my fingers to make the crumbly crust. Should you do this, please be sure not to add the coconut in with the flour mixture and process in the food processor. Not only is this an easy recipe and a visually appealing dessert, but tastes great. I wouldn’t hesitate to serve to company.

I made this with the first four ingredients, the "Extra Special" part and it really was! I made the Banana Pudding IV from this site for the pudding part. I don't make pudding often but whatever flavor I'll make in the future, adding the first four ingredients this way will be part of it. I did stir in part of it so that the crunchiness will be throughout. Everyone just raved about this one! Thanks for sharing.

I have made this four times already! My family loves, loves, loves, it! My husband says it is the only pudding dessert that he really likes. The crunchy crust and topping is what makes this so special and it is so easy to make. Making another pan today. Thanks for a great recipe, VJANE!

The toasted coconut mix was phenomenal. I will try this "crust" with my baked banana pudding recipe instead of vanilla wafers. Thanks for this amazing recipe.

Very good banana pudding recipe with the coconut. I actually lightened it by using fat free milk with pudding, light butter and fat free cool whip. Kids ate it up. Came together pretty easy just took a little time to cook the coconut crust.

This banana pudding is a nice change from the traditional vanilla wafers. I love the incorporation of coconut and crunchy topping. The next time around I will also double the banana pudding amounts, as suggested in another review/rating. Great recipe!
