🍍 Pineapple Heaven Cheesecake – A Tropical Delight! 🍰
This Pineapple Heaven Cheesecake combines a buttery graham cracker crust with a creamy pineapple-infused filling that’s bursting with tropical flavors. Perfect for any occasion when you want to transport your taste buds to paradise!
Ingredients:
For the Crust:
2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
For the Filling:
2 cups pineapple chunks (fresh or canned, drained if canned)
1 cup pineapple juice
Instructions:
1️⃣ Prepare the Crust:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until the mixture resembles wet sand.
Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan.
Bake for 10 minutes, then let cool while preparing the filling.
2️⃣ Prepare the Pineapple:
If using fresh pineapple, blend the chunks with pineapple juice until smooth. If using canned pineapple, ensure it's well-drained before blending. Set aside.
3️⃣ Make the Filling (Optional):
You can pair this recipe with a standard cream cheese mixture (cream cheese, sugar, vanilla, whipped cream) for a classic cheesecake or simply layer the pineapple blend over the cooled crust for a lighter, no-bake option.
4️⃣ Assemble the Cheesecake:
Spread the pineapple mixture over the crust. If using a creamy cheesecake filling, layer it first, then top with the pineapple.
5️⃣ Chill:
For a no-bake version, refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours or until set. For baked versions, bake at 325°F (160°C) for 40-50 minutes, then cool and refrigerate.
6️⃣ Serve:
Garnish with whipped cream, toasted coconut, or fresh pineapple slices for extra flair.
