1. Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C). In a bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar. Mix well, then press firmly into a 9-inch deep dish pie plate. Bake the crust for 10 minutes.
2. While the crust is baking, spread 1/3 cup of coconut on a rimmed baking sheet and toast it in the oven for 4-6 minutes, stirring once. Set aside to cool.
3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk and lemon juice until well combined. Stir in the drained pineapple, mandarin oranges, and pecans, reserving a small amount of pecans for garnish. Fold in the Cool Whip and untoasted coconut until evenly incorporated.
4. Spoon the filling into the prepared pie crust, spreading it out evenly. Sprinkle the top with the toasted coconut and reserved pecans for garnish.
5. Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours to allow it to set. Before serving, garnish with maraschino cherries if desired.
6. Slice and serve this decadent Million Dollar Pie, and watch it disappear in no time!
