Description
Easy No-Bake Pineapple Pie with Sweetened Condensed Milk, Whipped is a delightful treat you must try!
Ingredients
- 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 can (20 oz) crushed pineapple, thoroughly drained
- 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
- 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
- 1 container (8 oz) frozen whipped topping, thawed
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup whipped topping (for topping, optional)
- ¼ cup toasted coconut flakes (for topping, optional)
- 2 tablespoons crushed graham crackers (for topping, optional)
- A few small pineapple pieces (for topping, optional)
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar until the mixture resembles wet sand. Press firmly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie plate. Refrigerate for 20–30 minutes to help the crust set.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Gradually add the sweetened condensed milk, mixing until no lumps remain.
- Stir in the lemon juice and vanilla extract. Fold in the well-drained crushed pineapple until evenly distributed.
- Gently fold the thawed whipped topping into the pineapple mixture until smooth and fluffy. Avoid overmixing to maintain a light texture.
- Spoon the filling into the chilled graham cracker crust. Spread evenly with a spatula, smoothing the top.
- Cover the pie and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight, until the filling is set enough to slice cleanly.
- Before serving, add swirls of whipped topping, toasted coconut flakes, crushed graham crackers, or small pineapple pieces. Slice with a sharp knife and serve chilled.
Notes
- Drain the pineapple thoroughly: Excess juice can make the filling runny. Press the pineapple gently through a fine-mesh strainer.
- Use softened cream cheese: Room-temperature cream cheese blends more smoothly with condensed milk.
- Keep the whipped topping cold: Fold it in while thawed but still cool for a fluffy filling.
- Allow enough chilling time: Overnight chilling gives the pie the best texture.
- Store properly: Keep covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
