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

    Cup of Yum
  1. Crush the graham crackers in a food processor and melt the butter.
  2. Combine crushed graham crackers, melted butter, and sugar in a medium bowl. Mix until the consistency resembles wet sand.
  3. Divide the graham cracker mixture evenly among 6 half-pint mason jars, pressing it firmly into the bottom to form a crust.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. Fold in the whipped cream or whipped topping until just combined.
  7. 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.
  8. Spoon the mixture into the jars over the top of the crust.
  9. Place in the refrigerator to chill for at least four hours.
  10. 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.
