Description

A refreshing, creamy dessert that combines sweet pineapple, whipped topping, and a buttery graham cracker crust. Perfect for any occasion, this no-bake treat is easy to make and sure to impress.


Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 (8 oz) tub of whipped topping
  • 1 (20 oz) can crushed pineapple, drained
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Stir until the crumbs are fully coated.
  3. Press the crumb mixture into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish to form an even crust. Bake for 8-10 minutes, then set aside to cool.
  4. In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  5. Stir in the drained pineapple until well combined.
  6. Gently fold in the whipped topping until the mixture is light and fluffy.
  7. Spread the pineapple mixture evenly over the cooled graham cracker crust.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, before serving.

Notes

  • This dessert is best served chilled.
  • Ensure the pineapple is well-drained to avoid a soggy texture.
  • For additional flavor, you can sprinkle toasted coconut on top before serving.
