🥘 Ingredients

11 items

• 2 cups Graham cracker crumbs
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, melted
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar (for crust)
• 16 ounces Cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup Powdered sugar
• 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 3 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
• 1 cup Crushed pineapple, drained
• 0.5 cup Lemon curd (store-bought or homemade)

📝 Instructions

11 steps

1. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Stir until the mixture resembles wet sand.

2. Press the crumb mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust. Set aside in the refrigerator to chill while you prepare the filling.

3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth and creamy.

4. Add the heavy whipping cream and vanilla extract to the cream cheese mixture. Beat on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

5. Divide the cream cheese mixture in half. In one half, gently fold in the lemon juice and lemon zest to create the lemon layer.

6. In the other half, gently fold in the drained crushed pineapple to create the pineapple layer.

7. Remove the prepared crust from the refrigerator and spread the pineapple cheesecake layer evenly across the crust as the first layer.

8. Spread a thin layer of lemon curd on top of the pineapple cheesecake layer for added tartness.

9. Gently spread the lemon cheesecake layer on top of the lemon curd layer, smoothing the top with a spatula.

10. Cover the pie with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the layers to set fully.

11. Before serving, garnish with whipped cream, lemon zest, or a few pineapple chunks, if desired.
