Servings: 4 Persons

Ingredients

  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar adjust to taste
  • 1 cup pineapple chunks drained (fresh or canned)
  • 1 cup vanilla yogurt or whipped cream your call
  • 1/2 cup crushed graham crackers or shortbread cookies
  • 1/4 cup crushed pineapple or pineapple juice optional for extra zing
  • Orange zest or a pinch of coconut flakes for garnish optional
  • Mint leaves for garnish optional but cute

Instructions

  • Beat the cream cheese with powdered sugar until smooth and fluffy. No lumps, please. This is the base, so give it some love.
  • Fold in the yogurt or whipped cream until the mixture is light and creamy. Sniff test optional but recommended.
  • Stir in pineapple chunks to keep that sunny flavor in every bite. If you hate chunks, dice them finer or blend briefly—your call.
  • Layer in glasses: a spoonful of crumbs, a dollop of cheesecake, and a sprinkle of pineapple. Repeat until the glass looks inviting but not overstuffed.
  • Finish with a final crumble and a twist of pineapple juice or zest if you’re feeling fancy. Chill for 15 minutes if you can wait—that’s the hardest part.
