How to make a pineapple pie

- Fold in drained pineapple.
- Place the pie filling over the graham cracker pie crust. Chill for at least 2 hours before serving.

Expert Tips
- I garnished with a little bit of finely diced fresh pineapple (you can also reserve a bit of the crushed pineapple that goes inside the pie for this).
- Use any flavor of whipped topping (regular, low fat, sugar-free, etc).
- To substitute fresh whipped cream, whip 1 ½ cups cold heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form. Fold it into the cheesecake mixture (by hand; not with a hand mixer).
- Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. It’s not recommended to freeze the pie.
