Ingredients
- 1 cup Pineapple (crushed, canned, or fresh)
- 8 ounces Cream cheese (softened)
- 0.5 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Coconut flakes (optional, for garnish or mix-in)

Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, add the softened cream cheese and beat it with a hand mixer or a whisk until smooth and creamy.
Add the Greek yogurt, honey, and powdered sugar to the cream cheese. Mix until everything is fully combined and smooth.
Stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt (if desired) to enhance the flavors.
Drain any excess liquid if you're using canned crushed pineapple, then fold the pineapple into the creamy mixture using a spatula. Ensure it's evenly distributed.
If you like, add coconut flakes either as a mix-in for added texture or as a garnish on top.
Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours for a firmer dip and enhanced flavor.
