Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk the instant chocolate pudding mix with 2 cups of cold milk for about 2 minutes until the mixture thickens and appears glossy. Gently fold in 1 cup of whipped topping, being careful not to overmix.
  2. Pour the chocolate filling into the prepared graham cracker crust. Use a spatula to evenly spread the mixture.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine 1 cup of sweetened shredded coconut, 1 cup of chopped pecans, 1 cup of sweetened condensed milk, ¼ cup of melted butter, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Mix until glossy.
  4. Spoon the coconut-pecan mixture on top of the chocolate layer, creating decorative swirls and mounds.
  5. Cover the assembled pie with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results.
  6. When ready to serve, remove the pie from the refrigerator and top with shaved white chocolate or additional pecans if desired. Slice and enjoy.
