To make this Easter Coconut Cheesecake, you will need the following ingredients:

For the crust:

- 1 1/2 cups of sweetened shredded coconut
- 1/2 cup of almond flour
- 1/4 cup of melted butter
- 1/4 cup of sugar

For the filling:

- 24 oz of cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup of sugar
- 1 tsp of vanilla extract
- 4 eggs
- 1 cup of sweetened shredded coconut

For the whipped cream:

- 1 can of coconut cream, chilled overnight
- 1/4 cup of powdered sugar
- 1 tsp of vanilla extract
To start, preheat your oven to 350°F. In a bowl, mix together the shredded coconut, almond flour, melted butter, and sugar until well combined. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan and bake for 10 minutes.
While the crust is baking, prepare the filling. In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add in the sugar and vanilla extract and beat until well combined. Add in the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the shredded coconut.
Pour the filling over the baked crust and smooth out the top. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set and the edges are golden brown. Let the cheesecake cool to room temperature before refrigerating for at least 2 hours.
To make the whipped cream, scoop out the solid coconut cream from the can and place it in a bowl. Add in the powdered sugar and vanilla extract and beat until light and fluffy.
Once the cheesecake is chilled, remove it from the pan and top it with the whipped cream. Sprinkle some shredded coconut on top for garnish.
This Easter Coconut Cheesecake is a perfect combination of creamy and crunchy textures, with a sweet and nutty flavor that will leave your taste buds wanting more. It's a great dessert to serve at your Easter gathering, and it's sure to impress your guests.
