I have been making pineapple dessert as far I can remember. It’s an easy dessert that is perfect for serving over the hot summer months since it requires no baking. Perfect for making ahead and always a crowd pleaser.
Ingredients for Pineapple Delight
- Crumbs – So basically you need any plain biscuits which will be used for crumb. You can use digestives or graham crackers. In Australia they are are known as Granita Biscuits.
- Canned Pineapple – I used pineapple chunks, you can also use crushed pineapple but i think chucks work better for this recipe.
- Cream – suitable for whipping.
- Butter – a little bit of melted butter to add to crumbs.
Layering Up !
As with all the non bake desserts all you have to do assemble them ! To assemble pineapple delight you can either choose a large serving dish or individual serving glasses. Its is also ideal for making little dessert cups for parties etc.
Mix crumbs and butter together so it gets crumbly. Layer some crumb in the glass. Drizzle some pineapple juice over and add a layer of pineapple chunks. Next comes in the cream, its easy if you use it in a piping bag or you can just spoon it in. Repeat again with crumbs, pineapple and cream. Depending on depth of your serving dish or glass you can add another layer too.
Allow the pineapple delight to refrigerate for atleast 3-4 hours.
