INSTRUCTIONS
  1. Bake pie crusts, cool.

  3. Layer 1: Place cream cheese and sweetened condensed milk in a large mixer bowl; mix with electric mixer until fluffy. Fold in whipped topping, blending well.
  4. Method: Put 1/4 of cream cheese-milk-whipped topping (Layer 1) mixture in each pie shell. Drizzle caramel (Layer 2) over top
  5. Top with pecan-coconut (Layer 3) mixture.
  6. Repeat one more time in this order, ending with pecans and coconut.
  7. Cover with tinfoil or plastic wrap; place in freezer until serving time.
  8. When ready to serve, let stand 5 minutes before serving. Put rest back in freezer. Will keep for months.
