Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1.5 cups powdered sugar
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 2 cups whipped topping (e.g., whipped cream or Cool Whip)
- 20 ounces canned crushed pineapple (drained)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Mix thoroughly until the crumbs are evenly coated and have the texture of wet sand.
Press the graham cracker mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9x13-inch pan to form an even crust. Place the pan in the refrigerator to chill while preparing the filling.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth and creamy.
Gently fold in the whipped topping until fully incorporated, creating a light and fluffy filling.
Spread the cream cheese filling evenly over the chilled graham cracker crust, smoothing the surface with a spatula.
Evenly distribute the drained crushed pineapple over the cream cheese layer, spreading it out to cover the entire surface.
Cover the pan with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to allow the layers to set and the flavors to meld.
Slice into squares and serve chilled. Enjoy your Pineapple Dream Squares!
