Marshmallows are not only for hot chocolates! Widen your dessert arsenal with this quick and easy pie!
Ingredients
For Crust:
- 1¾ cups cookie crumbs, from shortbread, (roughly from 12 pieces)
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter, softed
For Filling:
- 14 oz condensed milk, (1 can)
- 8 oz cream cheese, room temperature
- 2 cups mini marshmallows, preferably an array of colors, divided
- ½ cup coconut flakes
- ½ cup pineapples, canned, and drained, crushed
- ½ cup mandarin oranges, canned, and drained
- ½ cup pecans, roasted and chopped
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ⅛ tsp salt
Instructions
For Crust:
-
Combine all the ingredients together, then press at the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch deep-dish pie tin.
-
Set aside for at least 30 minutes in a chilled area until the crust firms up.
Filling:
-
In a mixing bowl attached to a hand beater, add your cream cheese, milk, vanilla, and salt. Cream for roughly 8 to 10 minutes until pale and light.
-
Fold coconut flakes, pineapples, oranges, half of the marshmallows, and pecans into your cream cheese mixture until evenly incorporated.
-
Pour into your firm pie crust and spread evenly. It should form a mound on top of your pie crust.
-
Set aside in a chilled area until the filling set, anywhere from 6 hours to overnight. You can also freeze it if preferred.
-
Once set and working quickly, decorate your pie with the remaining marshmallows. You may need to return once more to the chiller to avoid the pie from melting. Portion accordingly and serve.
