Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 16 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 3/4 cup coconut cream (canned)
- 1 cup pineapple chunks (drained)
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs (room temperature)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8×8-inch baking pan.
- For the crust: Combine graham cracker crumbs and melted butter in a bowl, then press firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan. Bake for 10 minutes until golden, then let cool.
- For the filling: In a mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth. Add sour cream, coconut cream, sugar, and vanilla; mix until well combined.
- Gently add eggs one at a time to avoid overmixing. Fold in drained pineapple chunks using a spatula.
- Pour filling over cooled crust and smooth out the top. Bake for 30-35 minutes until set but slightly jiggly in the center.
- Allow to cool completely before chilling in the fridge for at least two hours before slicing.
