Time 2h15m

Number Of Ingredients 12

12 sheets graham crackers
1 cup heavy whipping cream
3 tablespoons powdered sugar (see notes)
Ingredients:
12 sheets graham crackers
1 cup heavy whipping cream
3 tablespoons powdered sugar (see notes)
1 20-ounce can crushed pineapple in juice
2 3.5-ounce packages of instant vanilla pudding
1 cup sour cream or plain Greek yogurt (see notes)
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup toasted shredded coconut (optional)

Steps:

  • If your coconut isn't toasted, place in a skillet over medium heat and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until light brown. Transfer to a plate to cool completely.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the can of pineapple (don't drain it - everything goes in), the sour cream, the vanilla extract (if using) and both packages of the vanilla pudding.
  • In a smaller mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream and powdered sugar, starting on low speed and working your way up to high, until medium peaks have formed.
  • Fold the whipped cream into the pineapple and pudding mixture.
  • Spread 1/3 of the filling mixture evenly over the bottom of a 2-quart casserole dish. Lightly sprinkle with coconut. Top with a layer of the crackers, breaking as needed to fill in gaps. A little space is okay. Repeat.
  • Top the last layer of crackers with the last third of the filling and the remaining coconut. Cover with plastic wrap.
  • Refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving so the graham crackers have a chance to soften. May be made up to the night before serving.
