Step 1



Serves: 8

Chilling Time: 6 hr

Cooking Time: 10 min
What You'll Need:


Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

In a medium-sized bowl, combine cookie crumbs, 1/4 cup walnuts, and butter. Press into bottom and up sides of a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate to form a crust. Bake 10 minutes, then remove from oven and allow to cool.

Meanwhile, in a large bowl, with an electric beater on medium speed, beat cream cheese for about 1 minute, until fluffy. Add sweetened condensed milk, lime juice, and pudding mix and continue beating 2 to 3 minutes, until smooth. Stir in remaining 1/2 cup walnuts and pineapple.

In a medium-sized bowl, with an electric beater on medium speed, beat cream 5 to 6 minutes, until stiff peaks form. Fold whipped cream into pudding mixture and pour into pie crust. Cover and chill at least 6 hours, or overnight.
