Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter or margarine, melted
1 cup all-purpose flour
1-1/4 cups flaked coconut
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 cup slivered almonds
1 package (3.4 ounces) instant vanilla pudding mix.
1 package (3.4 ounces) instant coconut pudding mix.
2-2/3 cups cold milk
2 cups whipped topping
Fresh strawberries, optional
 

Direction:
In a bowl, combine the first ingredients; press lightly into a greased 13-in. x 2-in. baking pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown, stirring every 10 minutes to form coarse crumbs. Cool. Divide crumb mixture in half; press half into the same baking pan. In a mixing bowl, beat pudding mixes and milk. Fold in whipped topping; spoon over the crust. Top with remaining crumb mixture. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Garnish with strawberries if desired. Yield 12-16 servings.
