Hot days call for cool desserts (and weddings)
I am so excited to share with you all that my youngest son and his forever partner were married recently. The year 2020 will be a memorable year for all of us due to the current world situation. But, with the tough times we do have a lot of happiness in our life right now as well.
The day my son and daughter in law were to be married was to be super hot. So I decided that a no cook and no bake celebration was in order. This Pina Colada Freeze is super refreshing on hot days, and because we love those flavors so much, I decided it was time to make a refrigerator pie to celebrate.
What you need to make this creamy coconut and pineapple pie recipe

Graham cracker crust: I ended up buying a pre made crust because graham crackers were not available in the grocery store. (I cannot believe I actually had to say that!). It is the easiest way to make this recipe and is very inexpensive to boot.
Crushed Pineapple: I buy this brand in a can.
Unsweetened Coconut Flakes
Toasted Coconut Flakes: You can toast these yourself by putting them in the oven for a few minutes until they brown, or you can buy this awesome toasted coconut product that I use!
Heavy Whipping Cream
Rum Extract: this is the brand I use and love.
Cream Cheese
Electric Mixer: I own this one.
Substitutions and Tips
- Use a pre-baked flour pie crust shell in place of the graham cracker crust
- Substitute frozen whipped topping (thawed) for the heavy whipping cream
- Substitute coconut extract for the vanilla or rum extract.
- Chop up some maraschino cherries and stir them into the filling mixture with the pineapple.
