Ingredients

Scale
  • For the Crust:
    • 113 grams of melted butter: This acts as the binding agent for the crust, adding richness and flavor.
    • 150 grams of graham cracker crumbs: These provide the base for the crust, lending a sweet and slightly crunchy texture.
    • 75 grams of sugar: The sugar sweetens the crust, balancing the flavors.
  • For the Filling:
    • 1 can of crushed pineapple (drained): Pineapple adds a tropical sweetness and juicy texture to the filling.
    • 113 grams of softened butter: Incorporating butter delivers a creamy consistency to the filling.
    • 220 grams of powdered sugar: This ingredient sweetens the filling and creates a smooth texture.
    • 225 grams of cream cheese: The cream cheese is crucial for providing that rich and creamy flavor profile.
    • 227 grams of Cool Whip: Adding Cool Whip gives the filling a light and airy quality, making it easier to spread.

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine 113 grams of melted butter, 150 grams of graham cracker crumbs, and 75 grams of sugar. Mix well until all ingredients are combined and crumbly. Then, press this mixture firmly into the bottom of a greased 9×13 inch dish to form an even layer.
  2. Make the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer to beat 113 grams of softened butter until smooth. Gradually add 220 grams of powdered sugar and 225 grams of cream cheese, beating until well combined and creamy. Fold in the drained 1 can of crushed pineapple and 227 grams of Cool Whip gently until the mixture is homogeneous.
  3. Assemble the Dessert: Spread the pineapple cream filling evenly over the prepared crust. Use a spatula to smooth the top and make it aesthetically pleasing.
  4. Chill: Cover the dish with plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator. Allow the dessert to chill for at least 4 hours, or until fully set. This chilling time is crucial for developing flavors and achieving the right texture.
  5. Serve: Once chilled, slice the dessert into squares and serve cold. Enjoy the refreshing taste of pineapple in each delightful bite!
