I found a recipe for a No Bake Pineapple Pie, though I can't find the source. It's easy and can be and with the added toasted coconut on top it reminds me of a Pina Colada.
The recipe doesn't say how many pies it makes but I found one graham cracker crust was easily filled and there was plenty of filling left over. I made two dessert dishes as well as the pie and it's just as good eaten that way ... and easier.
I think if I make it again - and I likely will - I will just make two pies or all dessert dishes.
Recipe:
1-9" graham cracker crust (I think it will fill two)
For the filling:
1-20 ounce can crushed pineapple (reserve 1/4 cup of the juicer)
1-8 ounce package cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp vanilla
1-8 ounce tub Cool Whip, thawed
For the Topping (optional)
Extra whipped cream (unnecessary in my opinion)
Toasted coconut flakes
Step-by-Step Instruction
1. Prep the pineapple: drain and save 1/4 cup juice for the filling
2. Make the filling: Beat the cream cheese, sugar, vanilla and reserved pineapple juice until; smooth
3. Assemble the pie: Pour filling into crust and smooth the top. Chill for at least 4 hours
4. Add the toasted coconut flakes (as much or as little as you like)
It's a great and easy summer pie.
