To create your No Bake Pineapple Cream Dessert, follow these straightforward steps:

1. Prepare the Base: In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are well coated.
2. Form the Crust: Press the graham cracker mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking dish, forming an even layer. Set aside.
3. Cream Cheese Mixture: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
4. Add Sugar and Vanilla: Gradually mix in the powdered sugar and vanilla extract until well combined and there are no lumps.
5. Whip Cream: In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form.
6. Combine Mixtures: Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until well combined.
7. Add Pineapple: Carefully fold in the drained crushed pineapple, making sure to distribute it evenly.
8. Layer the Dessert: Spread the pineapple cream mixture over the graham cracker crust in the baking dish, smoothing the top with a spatula.
9. Chill the Dessert: Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1.5 hours, allowing it to set.
10. Garnish and Serve: Before serving, optionally sprinkle the top with shredded coconut for added texture and flavor.

By following these steps, you’ll achieve an incredible dessert that showcases the deliciousness of tropical pineapples and creamy goodness.
