Description

Indulge in the tropical flavors of this Easy No-Bake Pineapple Dessert. Creamy, sweet, and refreshing, this treat is perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth without turning on the oven. It’s a crowd-pleaser for any occasion, especially during the warmer months.


Ingredients

For the Crust:

  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/3 cup melted butter

For the Filling:

  • 1 (20-ounce) can crushed pineapple in juice, undrained
  • 1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 (8-ounce) tub whipped topping (like Cool Whip), thawed
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract


Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crust: In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and melted butter, mixing until fully moistened. Press the mixture into the bottom of an 8×8-inch dish to form an even crust.
  2. Make the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, and continue to beat until creamy. Stir in the crushed pineapple (with juice) and gently fold in the whipped topping until fully combined.
  3. Assemble and Chill: Spread the pineapple mixture over the prepared crust and smooth the top. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, until set.
  4. Serve: Slice and serve chilled.

Notes

  • For extra texture, sprinkle additional graham cracker crumbs or chopped nuts on top before chilling.
  • You can substitute low-fat cream cheese and whipped topping if desired.
