Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1.5 cups pineapple chunks, drained
- 2 cups whipped topping (e.g., Cool Whip)
- 2 tablespoons pineapple juice (reserved from the canned pineapple or fresh)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- optional garnish: additional whipped topping or thinly sliced pineapple
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and the texture resembles wet sand.
Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom and slightly up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan to form the crust. Use the back of a spoon or the bottom of a measuring cup to press down evenly.
Place the crust in the refrigerator to chill and set while you prepare the filling.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy using an electric mixer.
Gradually add the powdered sugar, pineapple juice, and vanilla extract to the cream cheese, beating until well combined and fluffy.
Gently fold in the whipped topping with a spatula, ensuring the mixture remains light and airy.
Carefully fold in the drained pineapple chunks until evenly distributed throughout the filling.
Remove the chilled crust from the refrigerator and spoon the filling into the crust, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Cover the pie with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until the filling is set and firm.
Before serving, garnish with additional whipped topping or thinly sliced pineapple, if desired.
Slice into wedges and serve chilled. Enjoy your Cool Pineapple Pie!
