Step 3: Assemble the Pie
- Spoon the cream cheese and pineapple mixture into the cooled crust. Smooth the top with a spatula.
- Cover the pie with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours (or overnight) to allow it to set properly.
Step 4: Add the Topping
- Just before serving, decorate the pie with pineapple chunks, a dollop of whipped cream, or sprinkle with toasted coconut for added flavor and texture.
- Slice and serve chilled.
Tips for the Perfect Pineapple Cream Cheese Pie
- Drain the pineapple well: Too much liquid can make the filling runny.
- Room temperature cream cheese: Softened cream cheese blends more smoothly with sugar and pineapple.
- Chill, don’t rush: Allowing the pie to set in the fridge enhances the texture and flavor.
- Optional crust upgrade: Mix in a pinch of cinnamon for a subtle warm note.
