When it comes to the ingredients for Butterscotch Frozen Pie, feel free to mix and match. If you have nut allergies, you can simply omit the chopped nuts or substitute them with seeds for a crunch. Using unsweetened coconut could also give you more control over the sweetness. And if you prefer a lighter version, consider using low-fat cream cheese and whipped topping without sacrificing too much creaminess.

Butterscotch Frozen Pie Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 graham cracker pie crusts
- 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 (16 ounce) carton whipped cream
- 2 cups shredded coconut
- 1 cup nuts, chopped
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1 (16 ounce) jar butterscotch topping
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 (8 ounce) package of softened cream cheese, 1 (14 ounce) can of sweetened condensed milk, and 1 (16 ounce) carton of whipped cream. Mix until smooth and creamy.
- Evenly pour the cream cheese mixture into the 2 graham cracker pie crusts, making sure to distribute it well to avoid any gaps.
- In a skillet, melt 1/4 cup of butter over medium heat. Add 2 cups of shredded coconut and stir constantly until golden brown, keeping a close eye since coconut can burn quickly.
- Once the coconut is browned, spread it generously over the cream cheese mixture in the pie crusts, adding a lovely crunch and flavor.
- Now, drizzle 1 (16 ounce) jar of butterscotch topping over the coconut layer, letting it cascade down into the filling for that sweet finish.
- Finally, sprinkle 1 cup of chopped nuts over the top for added texture and flavor.
- Cover the pies and chill in the refrigerator for several hours, allowing the flavors to meld and the pie to set.
- Before serving, make sure the pies are well-chilled, slice, and enjoy the delicious layers.
