Pina Colada Pie in a Jar

By bweber

Ingredients

• 3 c. finely crushed graham crackers
• 12 tbsp. butter, melted
• 2 15-ounce cans crushed pineapple
• 2 c. heavy cream
• 8 oz. cream cheese, softened
• 1 tbsp. sugar
• 1/2 c. unsweetened coconut flakes, toasted

Preparation

Step 1

Make crust: In a large bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs with butter and stir until combined.

Make pineapple layer: In a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, heat crushed pineapple until thick and jammy, about 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, make cream layer: In a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Fold in cream cheese and sugar. (For best results, transfer mixture to a piping bag.)

Among four mason jars, layer graham cracker crust, pineapple (using a spoon), and cream, alternating until you reach the top of the jar.

Garnish with toasted coconut and serve.
