Ingredients
Scale
Crust
- 18 whole graham crackers
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
Filling
- 1 can (20 ounces) unsweetened crushed pineapple, drained
- 1 can (21 ounces) strawberry pie filling
- 2 cups frozen unsweetened strawberries, thawed and chopped
- 4 cups miniature marshmallows
- 1 carton (16 ounces) frozen whipped topping, thawed
Instructions
- Make the crust: Blitz the graham crackers in a food processor to grind them into crumbs. With the machine running, pour the melted butter through the chute until the graham cracker crumbs have the consistency of wet sand. Spoon the buttery crumb mixture into the bottom of a 13×9-inch baking dish. Use the bottom of a drinking glass to press the crumbs into an even layer on the bottom of the dish. Chill the crust in the fridge until it’s set, about 15 minutes.
- Blend the fruit and marshmallows: Place the pineapple, strawberry pie filling, and strawberries into a large mixing bowl and stir them together. Pour in the mini marshmallows and stir until they’re completely coated in fruit.
- Fold in the whipped topping: Spoon the thawed whipped topping into the bowl, and use a spoon or rubber spatula to gently fold the whipped topping into the fruit until everything’s combined and looks nice and pink.
- Spoon the filling into the pan: Scoop the filling over the chilled graham cracker crust and gently smooth it to evenly cover the crust. Cover the pan tightly with plastic wrap and chill the dessert in the fridge until it’s set, about one hour. If desired, top with additional whipped topping and halved fresh strawberries before serving.
Notes
- Press the crust firmly to ensure a solid base for the filling.
- Gently fold the whipped topping to keep the mixture light and fluffy.
- For extra freshness, garnish with halved fresh strawberries.
- This dessert is best served chilled and should be kept refrigerated.
