This 5 Minute Pineapple Dessert recipe is one of the quick and most effortless recipes you'll find anywhere. It is a no-cook/bake dessert recipe made with canned pineapple, cool whip, and condensed milk. So delicious!
I had never tasted this dessert made using canned pineapple earlier. But, thanks to my friend Gouri who introduced this dessert a few years back.
At Dhwani's 3'rd Bday Party, I made this easy four ingredients creamy pineapple dessert and was a big hit with kids and adults. I served this up in mini parfait cups and added some whipping cream and a piece of pineapple on top. Yum!
It makes a perfect party, potluck, or picnic dessert. This dessert is a keeper!
Pineapple Dessert Ingredients
The ingredients needed for this recipe are pretty simple. For this dessert recipe, you will need canned crushed pineapple, canned pineapple chunks, condensed milk, and cool whip or whipped cream.
How to Make easy Pineapple Dessert
In a large mixing bowl, take crushed pineapple, chopped pineapples with juice, condensed milk, cool whip (whipping cream), and fold everything until well combined.
You can also reduce the quantity of cool whip according to your preference. For example, I usually use ¾ of 8oz cool whip containers.
Chill the dessert in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving.
Tips & Variations
- You can also add chopped pecans, almonds, or walnuts.
- You can also make the same dessert by replacing pineapple with orange.
- I do not recommend making this dessert using fresh pineapple.
Recipe FAQs
If Cool Whip is not handy, you can use whipped cream or whipped topping instead. You can also use greek yogurt, but I haven't tried it.
Dont have canned crushed pineapple?
No worries, place canned pineapple chunks into your food processor and pulse a few times until the texture resembles crushed pineapple.

Can u use fat free vanilla pudding instead of condensed milk
Bhavana Patil says
Hi Mary, Condensed milk is added for the sweetness and to get rich taste to the dish. I am sure replacing vanilla pudding also tastes great in this dessert. Do let me know if you give a try.
