Instructions

Prepare the Crust:

In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix

until the crumbs are evenly coated with butter.

Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9×9 inch baking dish to form an even layer. Place the

dish in the refrigerator to chill while you prepare the other layers.

Prepare the Cream Cheese Layer:

In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff

peaks form. Set aside.

In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Gently fold the whipped

cream mixture into the cream cheese until well combined.

Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the chilled crust. Return the dish to the refrigerator to

chill while you prepare the pineapple topping.

Prepare the Pineapple Topping:

In a medium saucepan, combine the drained crushed pineapple, granulated sugar, and cornstarch.

Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and becomes clear.

Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the pineapple topping cool to room temperature.

Assemble the Dessert:

Once the pineapple topping has cooled, spread it evenly over the cream cheese layer.

Garnish with fresh pineapple chunks and mint leaves.

Chill and Serve:

Refrigerate the dessert for at least 2 hours, or until fully set, before serving.

Cut into squares and serve chilled.
