Ingredients
  

1 pre-made graham cracker pie crust

1 cup sweetened flaked coconut

1 cup chopped pecans

8 oz cream cheese, softened

1 cup powdered sugar

1 cup whipped topping (thawed)

1 cup German chocolate baking bars, melted

1/4 cup milk

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Optional: chocolate shavings for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Base: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, combine the sweetened flaked coconut and chopped pecans. Spread evenly in the bottom of the pre-made pie crust. Bake for 10-12 minutes until lightly toasted. Remove from oven and let cool completely.

    Make the Cream Cheese Mixture: In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and mix until fully incorporated. Fold in the whipped topping until just blended and creamy.

      Combine Chocolate: In a small bowl, mix the melted German chocolate baking bars with milk and vanilla extract until smooth. Allow to cool slightly.

        Layer the Ingredients: Spoon half of the cream cheese mixture on top of the cooled coconut and pecan layer in the pie crust. Drizzle half of the melted chocolate over the cream cheese layer. Repeat with the remaining cream cheese mixture and chocolate.

          Chill and Serve: Cover the pie with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set. Before serving, garnish with chocolate shavings if desired.
