Making refreshing summer desserts is always best for the hot summer months. Cakes and pies are great but we really enjoy super cold desserts to keep cooled off especially when we bbq. Our Lemon Lush is a perfect cool dessert but hubby was requesting a pineapple filled dessert. I was “delighted” to whip up something new for him to try after our grill out.

Pineapple is always refreshing and when you combine it with whipped cream, all I can say is “oh my”.  This dessert includes a buttery graham cracker crust, followed by a creamy layer, then topped with the dreamiest pineapple whipped topping. After it has chilled in the fridge for a few hours, this stuff makes for one amazing summer dessert.

  1. Pineapple Delight……..Do you mean WHIPPED cream or WHIPPING (HEAVY) cream ?? ……. two totally different items. Asking because in recipe you state to WHIP the cream. 2c of liquid cream will whip to 4c of whipped cream.

  2. See other comments
    2nd layer doesn’t bake
    It’s liquid
    I have so little time
    Treated us to this little indulgence and it’s a bomb
    So disappointed

    1. Agreed! This was a fail and not sure if the author Jen actually made this recipe (should have read the comments!) The egg layer was liquid when pulled from the oven. I had to throw it in the garbage. I redid the recipe and used cream cheese and icing sugar for a thin
      middle layer, which worked out well.

  3. Don’t bake the filling , and make sure you beat the filling for at least 3-4 mins, let sit overnight in the fridge , my Mom had made this recipe every Easter !
