Pineapple cheesecake is an incredibly simple and mouthwatering recipe. The great thing is, it only involves five simple ingredients that most people will have in their fridge and pantry. Believe me, young and old alike will love it. As always, give it a try and let us know what you think.
There are a few tips and variations to making this simply delicious recipe. First, I use pineapple tidbits, but you can use fresh pineapple if you like. We always find the whipped cream is best if whipped up by hand, but Redi Whip or Cool Whip could also be used. Graham pie shells can be purchased in just about any grocery store or can be made by hand if you have a bit of time on your hands. I always add sugar to my cream cheese to add a bit of sweetness, but you can leave it out or add more depending on your taste. A few hours to set in the fridge will suffice, but leaving it in over night usually yields the best results.
