Ingredients
  

Crust
  • 1 cup Graham Cracker Crumbs Can substitute with crushed almonds or oats for a gluten-free version.
  • 1/2 cup Melted Butter Coconut oil can be used for a dairy-free option.
Filling
  • 16 oz Cream Cheese Ensure it’s softened for easy mixing.
  • 1/2 cup Powdered Sugar Granulated sugar can be used but may create a grittier texture.
  • 1 cup Heavy Whipping Cream Whip to stiff peaks before adding.
  • 1/2 cup Orange Juice Substitute with mango puree or lemon juice if desired.
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract Optional but recommended.
  • 1 cup Crushed Pineapple Canned is fine, just ensure it's drained.

Equipment

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until the mixture resembles wet sand. Press it firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan.
  2. Beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 2 to 3 minutes.
  3. Gradually incorporate powdered sugar, heavy whipping cream, orange juice, vanilla extract, and crushed pineapple into the cream cheese. Blend until fully combined and creamy.
  4. Pour the filling over the crust in the springform pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
  5. Cover the cheesecake with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until set.
  6. Remove from the pan, garnish with fresh orange and pineapple slices, slice, and serve.
