In a large mixing bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk and lemon juice.
About 1 min
- 2
Whisk the mixture for about one minute until it visibly thickens.

Add the thawed whipped topping to the bowl.
About 1 min
- 4
Gently fold the whipped topping into the milk mixture with a spatula until just combined, being careful not to deflate the topping.
About 2 min
Cook’s note: Overmixing can make the filling less airy and light.
- 5
Add the well-drained crushed pineapple, chopped pecans, and shredded coconut to the bowl.
About 1 min
Cook’s note: Ensure the pineapple is drained thoroughly to prevent a watery filling.
- 6
Stir gently until all ingredients are evenly distributed throughout the filling.
About 2 min
- 7

About 2 min
