Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1 graham cracker or digestive biscuit crust (homemade or store-bought)
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups whipped cream or whipped topping
- 1 cup crushed pineapple, well drained
- 1/2 cup pineapple chunks (for topping)
- 1/4 cup melted butter (if making crust)
Instructions
- If making the crust: mix graham cracker crumbs with melted butter and press into a pie dish. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 8 minutes or chill for 30 minutes to set. Let cool completely.
- In a bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth.
- Add sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined.
- Fold in whipped cream and drained crushed pineapple.
- Spread the filling evenly into the prepared crust and smooth the top.
- Chill in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours or overnight until set.
- Before serving, top with pineapple chunks. Optionally, garnish with toasted coconut.
Notes
- Ensure crushed pineapple is well-drained to avoid a watery filling.
- Use whipped topping for a more stable, longer-lasting pie.
- Make the day before for optimal chilling and flavor.
- Add lime zest for a tangy citrus twist.
- Store in the fridge and serve chilled for best texture and taste.
