Ingredients
  

Graham Cracker Crust

  • 1 sleeve graham crackers around 1 1/2 cups
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 6 tablespoons butter melted

Cheesecake Filling

  • 16 ounces cream cheese softened to room temperature
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/4 cup sour cream optional
  • 8 ounces Cool Whip thawed
  • 1 cup Shredded Coconut sweetened
  • 1/2 teaspoon coconut extract
  • 3 cups mixed berries optional

Instructions
 

Graham Cracker Crust

  • Finely crush the graham crackers in a food processor or by placing them in a large freezer bag and roll over them with a rolling pin. Mix the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar in a small bowl and then firmly press it into the bottom of a 9-inch square or 11x17 inch rectangular pan. Place in the refrigerator while making the filling.

Cheesecake Filling

  • In a large bowl using a hand mixer, beat the cream cheese for around 3 minutes until smooth and fluffy. Slowly beat in powdered sugar until well combined. Gently fold in sour cream and Cool Whip. Stir in shredded coconut and coconut extract until combined.
  • Pour filling into the graham cracker crust and smooth the top. Cover and refrigerate at least 6 hours or overnight. When ready to serve, cut into 12 bars and top with fresh berries or topping of choice. Enjoy!

Notes

Helpful tips:
  • Cheesecake is best when stored covered in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for up to 7 days.
  • Sour cream helps keep the cheesecake moist and gives an added tangy flavor.
  • Be sure to allow at least 6 hour of refrigeration before serving for the cheesecake to set up.
