Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar (for crust)
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 0.75 cup powdered sugar
- 20 ounces pineapple chunks, canned, drained (reserve 2 tablespoons of juice)
- 8 ounces whipped topping (e.g., Cool Whip)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons optional crushed graham crackers (for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix until the mixture resembles wet sand.
Press the mixture evenly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie pan to form the crust.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden. Allow it to cool completely.
In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth and creamy.
Fold in the whipped topping, vanilla extract, and 2 tablespoons of reserved pineapple juice until well combined.
Gently stir in the drained pineapple chunks, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Spoon the filling into the cooled crust, smoothing out the top with a spatula.
Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until firm.
Before serving, optionally sprinkle crushed graham crackers on top for garnish.
Slice, serve, and enjoy your Fluffy Pineapple Pie!
