Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup crushed pineapple, drained
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 3 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1 cup coconut cream
- 1 cup toasted coconut flakes
- 6 pieces maraschino cherries (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs and melted unsalted butter until the texture resembles wet sand.
Spoon the mixture evenly into the bottoms of 6 small serving cups or jars, pressing it down to form a crust layer.
In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
Fold in the drained crushed pineapple, coconut cream, and powdered sugar. Mix until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the pineapple and cream cheese mixture until just combined and fluffy.
Spoon the mixture evenly over the graham cracker crusts in each serving cup, smoothing the tops with the back of a spoon.
Sprinkle toasted coconut flakes generously over the top of each cup.
Chill the cups in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to set.
Just before serving, top each cup with a maraschino cherry if desired. Serve chilled and enjoy your tropical treat!
