Instructions

Prepare the Crust:
Mix graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar in a bowl.
Press evenly into the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking dish. Set aside.
Make the Filling:
Beat softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth.
Fold in whipped topping, then add well-drained crushed pineapple.
Assemble the Dessert:
Spread the pineapple mixture evenly over the crust.
Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until set.
Serve:

Notes

Ensure the pineapple is well-drained to avoid a soggy filling.
Can be made a day in advance—flavors improve as it chills.
Top with toasted coconut or chopped nuts for added texture.
