Ingredients
- 300 g Graham crackers
- 120 ml Unsalted butter, melted
- 225 g Cream cheese, softened
- 120 g Powdered sugar
- 435 g Crushed pineapple in juice (canned, drained)
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 240 ml Whipped topping (thawed, if frozen)
- 2 tbsp Additional graham cracker crumbs (optional, for topping)
Directions
Step 1
Place the graham crackers in a food processor and pulse until finely crushed. Alternatively, place them in a zip-top bag and crush them with a rolling pin.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and resemble wet sand.
Step 3
Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish to create the crust. Use the bottom of a flat glass or a spatula to ensure it's packed evenly. Place the dish in the refrigerator to chill while preparing the filling.
Step 4
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy.
Step 5
Add the drained crushed pineapple and vanilla extract to the cream cheese mixture. Fold together gently with a spatula until well incorporated.
Step 6
Spread the pineapple-cream cheese mixture evenly over the chilled graham cracker crust.
Step 7
Gently spread the whipped topping over the pineapple layer, covering it completely.
Step 8
Optional: Sprinkle the top with additional graham cracker crumbs for decoration.
Step 9
Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to set completely.
Step 10
Once set, cut into squares and serve chilled. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
