  • Author: Sophia Turner
  • Total Time: 1 hour 15 minutes

Ingredients

– 1 cup crushed graham crackers
– ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
– 1 cup powdered sugar
– 8 oz cream cheese, softened
– 1 cup heavy whipped cream
– 1 can (8 oz) crushed pineapple, drained
– ½ cup shredded coconut

Instructions

Making Pina Colada Lush is a delightful experience if you follow these steps carefully:

1. Prepare the crust: In a medium bowl, mix the crushed graham crackers with the melted butter. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9×13 inch dish to form the crust.
2. Cream cheese mixture: In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy. Make sure to scrape down the sides for even mixing.
3. Whipped cream: In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold half of the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined.
4. Layer the mixture: Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the graham cracker crust.
5. Pineapple layer: Add a layer of the drained crushed pineapple over the cream cheese mixture, spreading evenly.
6. Coconut sprinkle: Sprinkle the shredded coconut evenly over the pineapple layer.
7. Final layer: Fold the remaining whipped cream into the mixture and gently spread over the coconut layer.
8. Chill: Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to let the flavors meld.
9. Garnish: Optional – Before serving, sprinkle additional coconut on top for extra flair.

These steps will ensure that your Pina Colada Lush turns out beautifully, allowing you to impress your family and friends!
