Ingredients
- 12 Graham crackers or 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/3 cup butter melted
- 1 ½ cups heavy whipping cream or 8-ounce tub whipped topping
- 2 ounce blocks cream cheese softened
- 1/3 cup white sugar
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1 teaspoon coconut extract
- 1 cup pineapple tidbits drained
- 1/2 cup sweetened shredded coconut flakes
Optional
- 1 teaspoon rum extract
Suggested Toppings
- Pineapple tidbits or fresh pineapple
- sweetened coconut flakes
- Maraschino cherries
Instructions
- Crush the graham crackers in a food processor and melt the butter.
- Combine crushed graham crackers, melted butter, and sugar in a medium bowl. Mix until the consistency resembles wet sand.
- Divide the graham cracker mixture evenly among 6 half-pint mason jars, pressing it firmly into the bottom to form a crust.
- If using whipped cream: In a mixing bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream on high for four to five minutes until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar, sour cream, and coconut extract on medium speed until smooth and creamy. Add the rum extract if you are using it.
- Fold in the whipped cream or whipped topping until just combined.
- Add one cup of pineapple tidbits and the coconut flakes. Fold in until well mixed. Your cheesecake batter should be light, fluffy, and filled with tropical goodness.
- Spoon the mixture into the jars over the top of the crust.
- Place in the refrigerator to chill for at least four hours.
- Serve the mini cheesecakes with more pineapple tidbits or fresh pineapple, coconut, and a maraschino cherry.
Notes
- Depending on who you are making this for, add 1 teaspoon of rum extract to the cheesecake filling to give these desserts even more piña colada flavor.
- Use a spoon to press the crust mixture into the Mason jars.
- You can also make these in 12 4-ounce Mason jars, or divide it between more 8-ounce jars to make a smaller serving size.
- Use full-fat cream cheese for the best texture.
- To toast shredded coconut to sprinkle on top: Place 1/4 cup coconut in a skillet and cook over medium heat. Stir constantly until the coconut is golden brown, then immediately remove from heat and transfer to a bowl to cool.
