Ingredients
- FOR THE CRUST
- 50 NILLA Wafers
- 6 tbsp. melted butter
- ¼ c. sugar
- FOR THE FILLING
- 4 oz. cream cheese, softened

Instructions
- Make crust: In a food processor, pulse Nilla wafers until they are fine crumbs. Transfer crumbs to a bowl, then add butter and sugar and stir until combined. Grease a 9" pie plate and press in the crust mixture.
- Make filling: In a large bowl using a hand mixer, beat cream cheese until smooth. Mix in sweetened condensed milk, vanilla and salt until fully incorporated. Fold in Cool Whip.

- Pour half the cream cheese mixture into the pie pan and cover with coconut caramel. Smooth to the edges to make a layer.
