Pineapple Cream Cheese Dessert is a luscious, creamy light dessert that’s perfect for the holidays. But’s it’s also a great dessert for company any time of the year. It’s one of those desserts that’s completely satisfying for any sweet tooth craving. While it does have several stages, this dessert is worth the effort.

Ho, ho, ho! Merry Christmas! We are here in sunny Florida spending the holidays with John’s family and soaking up the sunshine. Yesterday was John’s birthday, and since birthday boy loves pineapple as one of his favorite fruits I decided to make this spectacular dessert.

It has a yummy graham cracker crust with a luscious cream cheese and pineapple filling, topped with Cool Whip and fresh pineapple. Oh, my! Was it ever wonderful.  All our relatives thought it was fantastic and one I should make over and over again.
