Ingredients
  

1 can (20 oz) crushed pineapple in juice, well-drained

1 cup heavy whipping cream

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

8 oz cream cheese, softened

1 cup graham cracker crumbs

1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

1/2 cup shredded coconut (optional)

Fresh pineapple chunks for garnish (optional)

Mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and resemble wet sand. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of an 8x8-inch square baking dish to form an even crust. Set aside.

    Make the Cream Cheese Mixture: In another large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until creamy and smooth. Gradually add in the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.

      Whip the Cream: In a separate mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream with a hand mixer or stand mixer until stiff peaks form. This will give your dessert a light and airy texture.

        Combine Ingredients: Fold the whipped cream gently into the cream cheese mixture until just combined. Be careful not to deflate the whipped cream.

          Add Pineapple: Gently fold the drained crushed pineapple into the cream mixture, ensuring an even distribution throughout the filling.

            Layer the Dessert: Spread the pineapple cream mixture over the prepared graham cracker crust, smoothing out the top with a spatula. If desired, sprinkle shredded coconut over the top for added texture and flavor.

              Chill: Cover the baking dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight if possible. This will allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to set properly.

                Serve: Once set, cut the dessert into squares. Garnish with fresh pineapple chunks and mint leaves if desired. Serve chilled and enjoy the tropical goodness!
