2 cups crushed graham crackers
½ cup unsalted butter, melted
1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
1 cup powdered sugar
1 can (14 oz) crushed pineapple, drained
1 cup coconut cream
2 cups whipped topping
½ cup shredded sweetened coconut
¼ cup maraschino cherries, for garnish (optional)
In a medium bowl, combine crushed graham crackers and melted butter. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9×13 inch dish to form the crust.
In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth. Add coconut cream and mix until well combined.
Fold in 1 cup of whipped topping into the cream cheese mixture until light and fluffy.
Spread half of the cream cheese mixture over the graham cracker crust. Top with half of the drained crushed pineapple and sprinkle with half of the shredded coconut.
Repeat the layers with the remaining cream cheese mixture, pineapple, and coconut. Finish with a layer of whipped topping.
Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving. Garnish with maraschino cherries if desired.
Marinating overnight will deepen the flavors and make the layers set better.
For a dairy-free version, substitute the cream cheese and whipped topping with non-dairy options like coconut cream and dairy-free whipped topping.
You can increase the coconut flavor by adding coconut extract to the cream cheese mixture or more shredded coconut.
