Creamy cheese filling mixed with pineapple, pecans, and marshmallows rests in a buttery graham cracker crust. I love serving this for summer gatherings because it requires absolutely no baking.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 graham cracker crust Pre-made or homemade
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened Room temperature
  • 1 cup powdered sugar Sifted if lumpy
  • 8 oz whipped topping Thawed
  • 20 oz crushed pineapple Drained very well
  • 1 cup pecans, chopped Toasted optional
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows Adds texture
  • ½ cup maraschino cherries Chopped and drained

Equipment

  • 1 Large mixing bowl For filling
  • 1 Electric mixer For beating cheese
  • 1 Rubber Spatula For folding
  • 1 Fine mesh strainer For draining fruit

Method
 

  1. Beat the softened cream cheese until light and fluffy to ensure a smooth texture without lumps.
  2. Mix in the powdered sugar gradually until the base becomes completely smooth and uniform.
  3. Fold the thawed whipped topping gently into the cheese mixture to maintain its airy volume.
  4. Stir in the drained pineapple, pecans, marshmallows, and cherries so they are evenly distributed.
  5. Spoon the filling into the crust and spread it to create gentle swirls on top.
  6. Refrigerate the pie covered for at least four hours until the filling sets firmly.

Notes

Drain the crushed pineapple thoroughly in a fine-mesh strainer; removing excess liquid prevents the pie filling from becoming watery.
