Ingredients
Crust:
- 2 ⅓ cups crushed graham crackers
- ⅓ cup brown sugar
- ¾ cup melted butter
Filling:
- 16 oz cream cheese
- ⅓ cup powdered sugar
- ¼ cup Greek yogurt
- ¼ cup pineapple juice
- ½ tsp salt
- 20 oz can crushed pineapple drained and divided (1/2 for filling & 1/2 for topping)
- 3.4 oz package instant vanilla pudding
- 2 cups Cool Whip
Topping:
- 2 cups Cool Whip
- ½ (20-ounce can) crushed pineapple
- ½ tsp vanilla
- Crushed graham crackers for topping
Instructions
Crust
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine crushed graham crackers and brown sugar.
- Add in the butter and mix until well combined and the texture is like wet sand.
- Press into the bottom of a 9x13” baking dish. Place into the fridge to chill until the filling is made.
Cheesecake Filling
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, combine cream cheese and powdered sugar.
- Mix on low speed until the powdered sugar is incorporated.
- Turn the mixer speed up to medium-high and mix until smooth.
- Add Greek yogurt, pineapple juice, and salt. Mix to combine.
- Add in ½ of the 20-ounce can of pineapple and mix.
- Add in the vanilla pudding and mix to combine.
- Remove the bowl from the stand mixer and add in the cool whip. Fold in using a rubber spatula. Spoon the filling into the cooled crust and smooth it out.
Pineapple Whipped Cream Topping
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the cool whip, the remaining ½ can of crushed pineapple, and vanilla.
- Evenly spoon the topping over the cream cheese filling mixture.
- Sprinkle crushed graham crackers over the top.
- Cover and place the dessert into the refrigerator to chill for at least 4 hours before serving.
Notes
- Storage - Pineapple Delight may be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
Graham Cracker Crumbs - If you can't find graham cracker crumbs at the grocery store, then you can buy regular graham crackers, place them in a plastic zip-top bag, and crush them by rolling over them with a rolling pin. Other substitutions include using crushed:
Vanilla wafers
Shortbread cookies
Gingersnaps, or
Cornflakes

- Greek Yogurt - Instead of Greek Yogurt, you could use plain yogurt or sour cream instead.
- Vanilla Pudding - Instead of Vanilla Pudding, you can use cheesecake pudding and add one teaspoon of vanilla extract.
- Cool Whip - I recommend buying either a 16-ounce container of Cool Whip or two 8-ounce containers. A single 8-ounce container of Cool Whip will not be enough. If you don't have Cool Whip, you can make a Homemade Whipped Topping recipe for fluffy whipped cream.
- Freezing - You can freeze Pineapple Delight for up to a month. Just make sure to cover it securely before freezing. When you're ready to enjoy it, thaw it in the refrigerator overnight before serving.
