Description

Easy No Bake Pineapple Cheesecake is a creamy, tropical dessert with a buttery graham cracker crust and sweet, light pineapple filling. Perfect for warm days!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 2 teaspoons granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup confectioners sugar, sifted
  • 1 (20-ounce) can crushed pineapple, well drained
  • 16 ounces whipped topping

Instructions

  1. Prepare all ingredients and measure them out.
  2. Mix graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter in a bowl until it resembles wet sand. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the mixture and press the rest into the bottom of an 8-9 inch springform pan. Refrigerate while you make the filling.
  3. In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese and sifted confectioners sugar with an electric mixer until smooth and fluffy.
  4. Fold well-drained crushed pineapple into the cream cheese mixture until evenly combined.
  5. Gently fold in whipped topping using a spatula to maintain fluffiness. Spread the mixture over the prepared crust in the springform pan.
  6. Sprinkle reserved graham cracker crumbs on top for decoration. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2-3 hours before serving.

Notes

  • Ensure pineapple is thoroughly drained to prevent a runny filling.
  • Softened cream cheese is key to achieving a smooth mixture.
  • For a healthier option, consider using low-fat cream cheese and sugar substitutes.
  • Do not skip the chilling time; it helps the cheesecake set and makes it easier to slice.
  • If using homemade whipped cream, ensure it’s lightly sweetened to complement the filling.
