butter

🥗Healthier: coconut oil

💰Cheaper: margarine

Coconut oil adds flavor and is dairy-free.

whipped cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: cool whip

Greek yogurt reduces calories while adding creaminess.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Place the entire package of Bortman's Bakery coconut cookies into a food processor and finely grind them.

In a bowl, combine the ground coconut cookies, 1/4 cup of melted coconut oil, and 2 tablespoons of Dixie Crystals sugar. Mix until well combined.

Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a deep dish pie plate, ensuring an even layer.

Bake the crust in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes, or until it turns a little bit golden.

While the crust is baking, prepare the filling by zesting 4 limes to obtain about 1 tablespoon of lime zest.

Juice the limes to extract the lime juice (the quantity is not specified in the transcript).
