No-Bake Pina Colada Pie

David Venable

When you want a slice of pie, but it's too hot to turn on the oven, my no-bake dessert does just the trick!

Ingredients

  • 1 lb cream cheese, room temperature
  • 1-1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
  • 1-1/4 cups coconut milk
  • 2 tsp rum extract
  • 1/2 cup pineapple juice
  • 1 cup crushed pineapple
  • 1 (3.4-oz) pkg instant vanilla pudding
  • 1 (6-oz) premade graham cracker crust
  • 1-1/2 cups whipped topping
  • 1/2 cup sweetened shredded coconut
  • 13 maraschino cherries with stems

Directions

In the bowl of a stand mixer with a paddle attachment, cream together the cream cheese and confectioners' sugar until there are no lumps. Add the coconut milk, rum extract, pineapple juice, crushed pineapple, and pudding. Mix together until smooth.
Spread the filling into the graham cracker crust. Cover and refrigerate until completely chilled, about 3–4 hours.
Once chilled, spread the whipped topping over the filling and sprinkle the coconut overtop. Place 1 cherry in the middle of the pie and place the rest around the edge.

Cook's Notes

You can freeze this & serve it frozen—just run a knife under hot water before cutting into slices. And if you want to make the dessert more adult, replace the extract with white or spiced rum.
