Tropical Pineapple Delight Dessert

 

Pineapple Delight

What You Need

Ingredients

• 1 cup crushed graham crackers
• 1/2 cup melted unsalted butter
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 2 cups whipped cream
• 8 ounces whipped cream cheese
• 20 oz crushed pineapple, drained

Instructions

1. In a medium bowl, combine the sugar, melted butter, and graham cracker crumbs.
2. Form a crust by pressing the mixture firmly into an 8×8 pan.
3. In a separate bowl, mix the whipped cream and half of the whipped cream cheese until thoroughly combined. Spread this mixture evenly over the crust.
4. In the same bowl, mix the drained pineapple with the remaining whipped cream cheese until well combined.
5. Spread the pineapple mixture over the cream cheese layer.
6. Place the dessert in the refrigerator to set, preferably for at least four hours, but overnight is best.
7. Optional: Before serving, top with additional whipped cream and crumbled graham crackers.

Tips and Variations

• Add a tropical twist by incorporating diced peaches or mango chunks.
• Mix crushed nuts into the crust for added texture and flavor.
• Reduce the sugar for a less sweet dessert, or use low-sugar whipped cream.
• For a vegan version, substitute coconut cream for the whipped cream and use a dairy-free cream cheese.
