Not at all. The hardest part is waiting the 5 hours:) Most everyone her has the recipe here I have posted it a few time,

Layered Coconut Cream Cheesecake Bars

What You Need

84 Nilla Vanilla Wafers, divided
6 Tbsp. butter, melted
1 tub (250 g) Philadelphia Cream Cheese Spread (I used the brick)
2 Tbsp. sugar
1 tub (1 L) Cool Whip Whipped Topping, divided
2 pkg. (4-serving size each) Jell-O Vanilla Instant Pudding 2-1/2 cups cold milk
1 cup flaked coconut, toasted, divided

 Make It
RESERVE 24 wafers. Crush remaining wafers; mix with butter. Press onto bottom of 13x9-inch pan. Refrigerate while preparing filling.

BEAT cream cheese spread and sugar in medium bowl with mixer until well blended. Whisk in 1 cup Cool Whip; carefully spread over crust. Stand reserved wafers around edges of pan.

WHISK pudding mixes and milk in medium bowl 2 min. Stir in 1 cup Cool Whip and 1/2 cup coconut; spread over cream cheese layer. Top with remaining Cool Whip and coconut. Refrigerate 5 hours. Cut into bars.

I made it for the second time yesterday, Resa.... my husband LOVES it.  Yes, first time I was a little short of Cool Whip too, but it was OK.  Yesterday I bought two containers...just in case...and needed it.  My supermarket only stocks the 8 oz. size.

(dessert is half gone already).
