Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 180 grams Graham crackers
- 75 grams Unsalted butter
- 227 grams Cream cheese
- 80 grams Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 240 milliliters Heavy cream
- 200 milliliters Coconut milk
- 2 drops Blue food coloring
- 30 grams Shredded coconut
Instructions
Crush the graham crackers into a fine crumble using a food processor or a rolling pin, then transfer to a mixing bowl.
Melt the butter and pour it over the graham cracker crumbs. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and resemble wet sand.
Press the crumb mixture into the base of a 9-inch round pie dish, creating a firm and even layer. Chill in the refrigerator while preparing the filling.
In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese until soft and smooth using a hand mixer or stand mixer.
Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the cream cheese, then beat until fully combined and fluffy.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form, then fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture. Set aside.
In another small bowl, mix the coconut milk with 2 drops of blue food coloring until evenly blended.
Remove the graham cracker base from the refrigerator, then carefully pour the blue coconut milk mixture over the base, creating a thin, leveled turquoise layer.
Gently spread the cream cheese and whipped cream mixture over the blue coconut milk layer, ensuring an even, cloud-like topping.
Sprinkle shredded coconut over the top as a finishing touch.
Chill the dessert in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to set before serving.
Slice and serve chilled, savoring each creamy and tranquil bite.
