In a medium mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, vanilla Greek yogurt, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and well combined. Set aside.
In a large trifle bowl, glass bowl, or serving dish, begin layering the fruit and yogurt mixture. Start with an even layer of sliced strawberries.
Add a layer of blueberries on top of the strawberries.
Add the pineapple chunks as the next layer, spreading evenly.
Next, create a layer with the halved green grapes.
Follow with an even layer of sliced bananas.
Spread a portion of the yogurt-cream cheese mixture evenly over the bananas to form a creamy layer.
Repeat the layers in the same order until all the fruit and yogurt mixture are used, finishing with a layer of the yogurt mixture on top.
Sprinkle the top with chopped pecans, walnuts, or shredded coconut if desired for added texture and flavor.
Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight to let the flavors meld together.
Serve chilled the next day and enjoy your delightful overnight layered fruit salad!
