Ingredients

  • INGREDIENTS
  • Crust:
  • 1 ½ c. vanilla wafer crumbs crumble in food processor or smash in tiny pieces in zip-loc baggie
  • 2 T. butter melted
  • Cheesecake:
  • 2 Cans Dole Tropical Fruit drained, save juice
  • ½ Cup sugar
  • 2 Envelopes unflavored gelatin
  • 1 8 oz. package cream cheese cubed
  • Handful of maraschino cherries for top of cheesecake
  • ¼ Cup Sweetened Coconut Shavings lightly toast
  • 2 c. whipped topping such as Cool Whip

Instructions

  • For the Crust:
  • In a small bowl, combine vanilla wafer crumbs and melted butter. Press into the bottom of a 9-inch spring form pan lightly coated with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
  • For the Filling:
  • In a small saucepan, stir in Dole Tropical Fruit and sugar. Warm over medium heat for 5-7 minutes until sugar is melted and forms a syrup.
  • Pour ½ cup reserved juice in a small bowl and sprinkle in unflavored gelatin. Let stand for 1 minute until thick. Stir gelatin mixture into the warm fruit/syrup mixture.
  • Reduce heat to low and add cream cheese. Stir often until cream cheese is melted and the mixture is well blended and creamy. Remove from heat and allow to cool completely.
  • Fold in the whipped topping. Pour into spring form pan completely covering crust. Cover with saran wrap and refrigerate for at least 5 hours. (Pie should be hard enough to not leave a fingerprint when touching the top)
