๐ Ingredients
Youโll only need four simple ingredients to make this delightful dessert:
1 can (400 g) crushed pineapple (with juice)
1 cup (240 ml) heavy cream or whipped cream
1 cup (240 g) sweetened condensed milk
ยฝ cup (120 g) cream cheese or plain yogurt (optional for extra creaminess)
๐ก If you want a lighter version, use yogurt instead of cream cheese, and fold in whipped cream for an airy texture.
๐ฉโ๐ณ Instructions
- Drain the pineapple (optional)
If your crushed pineapple is very juicy, drain some of the liquid โ but donโt remove it all! Youโll want a bit of the syrup for flavor. - Whip the cream
In a mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream until soft peaks form. (If using pre-whipped cream, you can skip this step.) - Add the sweetness
Gently fold in the sweetened condensed milk and cream cheese or yogurt. Mix until smooth and creamy. - Stir in the pineapple
Add the crushed pineapple (with a bit of juice) and mix until fully combined. - Chill and serve
Pour the mixture into a serving dish or small cups. Chill for at least 2โ3 hours or until set and cold.
๐จ Serving Ideas
Garnish with toasted coconut, pineapple chunks, or mint leaves.
Serve in individual cups for parties or layer it in a glass with biscuits for a parfait-style dessert.
Perfect for summer gatherings, Ramadan iftar tables, or quick weekend treats.
๐ฐ Economical Tip
Use store-brand condensed milk and canned pineapple to save even more money โ the flavor remains just as delicious!
๐งก Storage
Keep refrigerated for up to 3 days in an airtight container. Do not freeze, as the texture may change once thawed.
