Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 0.5 cups Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 20 ounces Crushed pineapple, drained
- 2 cups Whipped topping (such as Cool Whip), thawed
- 0.25 cups Optional: Toasted coconut flakes for garnish
- as needed Optional: Pineapple slices or maraschino cherries for garnish
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix until the crumbs are evenly moistened.
Press the crumb mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust. Place the crust in the refrigerator to chill while preparing the filling.
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the cream cheese and mix until fully combined.
Gently fold in the drained crushed pineapple and whipped topping until the mixture is light, fluffy, and well combined.
Spoon the pineapple filling into the prepared crust, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow it to set completely.
Optional: Before serving, sprinkle toasted coconut flakes over the top for a tropical touch, or garnish with pineapple slices and maraschino cherries for decoration.
Slice and serve the pie chilled. Enjoy the light and creamy tropical flavors of your Pineapple Cloud Pie!
