Today, I’m super excited to share my tropical coconut and pineapple cream cheese pie recipe with you! Here in the southern part of the United States, tropical pies seem to entice me from everywhere during these hot summer months.  The variety of flavored tropical pies is surely one of the best things about summer. I’m normally a sucker for key lime (and…lucky for you…I have an amazing key lime pie linked at the bottom of this post).

This sweet treat made with pineapple has become one of my favorite summer indulgences. This easy no bake pineapple dessert did the trick! You could almost call this tropical coconut pie a pina colada pie or even a pineapple chess pie. Maybe even a no bake pineapple pie or a no bake pineapple cheesecake?

Make Shredded Coconut Pie Crust for This Easy Pineapple Coconut Dessert 

Typically, I make my favorite graham-cracker coconut pie crust. Obviously, the shredded coconut crust adds a bit more of a tropical vibe to this pineapple coconut icebox pie. But this pie would be delicious with a basic graham cracker crust for a true no bake pineapple pie. I do recommend a homemade crust over a store-bought one. You see that thick crust in the picture? This rich and tropical coconut and pineapple cream cheese pie pairs well with a thick crust for balance.

Some might think this no bake pineapple pie recipe is not actually a no bake pineapple pie because I do recommend making and baking your own shredded coconut pie crust.  However, you can totally use a store-bought crust for this pineapple cream cheese pie. And pineapple cream cheese pie filling is totally no-bake. 

  1. Toast coconut in oven for about 5 minutes.
  2. Mix graham cracker crumbs, coconut and salt in bowl.
  3. Add coconut extract to melted butter and mix into graham cracker crumbs. 
  4. Pat down graham crackers into 9-inch pan and bake for around 7 minutes until set.

Make a No Bake Pineapple Pie Filling

This no bake pineapple pie filling couldn’t be any easier! 

  1. Mix cream cheese with cream of coconut until smooth.
  2. Fold in Cool Whip and crushed pineapple.
  3. Pour pineapple pie filling into prepared pie crust.
  4. Top with toasted coconut.

By the way, I just love the new Cream of Coconut squeeze bottle from Coco Real! No more wasted cream of coconut!

Oh, my goodness! This pineapple pie recipe is the best!

Turn No Bake Pineapple Cream Cheese Pie Into a Hawaiian Pie

If you wish, you could add 1/2 cup chopped walnuts and 1/2 cup chopped maraschino cherries into the pineapple pie filling when you add the pineapple. This would turn this pineapple pie into more of a Hawaiian pie.

Ingredients
  

For the Coconut Crust for Pineapple Coconut Icebox Pie

  • Adapted from Icebox Pies by Lauren Chattman
  • 1 1/3 cups graham crackers crumbs or 11 full graham crackers, processed into crumbs
  • 1/3 cup coconut not toasted
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 5-6 tbsp butter melted
  • 1 tsp coconut extract

For the Pineapple Coconut Icebox Pie Filling

  • 1 blocks cream cheese softened
  • 1/2 cup cream of coconut
  • 1 tub cool whip thawed
  • 10 oz crushed pineapple drained (1/2 of a 20 oz can)
  • 3/4 cup coconut toasted

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Spread ¾ cup of coconut on a baking sheet and bake for about 5 minutes until it is mostly browned.
  • In a medium sized mixing bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, the untoasted coconut and the salt.
  • Next, pour the extract into the melted butter and pour all of it into the graham cracker crumb mix.
  • Mix until the crumbs are well-blended.
  • Pat the crumbs into a nine-inch pie pan (24 cm), making sure to go up the sides of the pan until the crust is even.
  • Bake crust for about 7 minutes at 350 degrees.
  • In the bowl of a mixer, blend the cream cheese with the cream of coconut.
  • Next, add the Cool Whip and mix for about one minute.
  • Afterward, pour in the pineapple and continue mixing for about 30 seconds longer.
  • Pour the entire concoction into one cooled pie shell. (This makes for a tall pie. You could possibly stretch the mixture into two smaller pies.)
  • Sprinkle on the toasted coconut and place in the fridge to cool for about four hours.

Notes

Optional – Turn this pineapple cream cheese pie into a Hawaiian pie with two additions.
Add 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (or pecans) and 1/2 cup chopped maraschino cherries into the pineapple pie filling at the same time you add the crushed pineapple.
