Maybe it's all the years I spent bartending, but I love a nice frosty drink during summer. I know they can be a pain to make, but the blender clean up is totally worth the perfect Piña Colada, Strawberry Daiquiri, or Margarita. I've been on huge coconut and tropical flavor kicks so far this summer…and that means awesome things for all of you! I've whipped up all kinds of yummy recipes, like Tropical Popsicles, Pina Colada Jello Shots, and my Mom's Best Ever Coconut Cake. It's been total flavor bliss and today we're taking it to the next level with a No Bake Pina Colada Pie!

A Malibu Pineapple was one of my favorite summer drinks to order when I was younger. Now it's usually a crisp, clean Kölsch, but sometimes I still co back to my favorite. I'm just drawn to that coconut & pineapple flavor combination. This pie if full of those flavors. The base of the filling starts with cream cheese for a luscious texture, then you add in lots of pineapple and coconut goodies to marry it all together. (For my dairy-free friends, substitute your fave dairy-free cream cheese and coconut cream!) Now, I like to garnish my pie like I'd garnish my drink…with cute red cherries that'll brighten up any dessert table. I'm mean seriously, who wouldn't want a slice of this pie?! It's delicious, creamy, tropical, and SUPER easy to make. And the best part is you never have to turn on your stove! I hope you love this easy no bake dessert as much as I do.

No Bake Pina Colada Pie

Prep Time: 4 hours 5 mins     Yield: about 8 servings

Ingredients:

8 ounces cream cheese, softened

One 3.4-ounce box coconut cream instant pudding mix

1/2 cup pineapple juice

1/2 cup heavy cream (or coconut cream)

1 teaspoon vanilla

One 8-ounce can crushed pineapple, well drained

1/2 cup sweetened shredded coconut

1 prepared graham cracker pie crust (store-bought or homemade)

For Garnish:

1/2 cup toasted coconut flakes

Whipped cream (or whipped coconut cream)

Maraschino cherries, rinsed and patted dry

Directions: 

  1. In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until it's fluffy, about 1 minute.
  2. Add the pudding mix, pineapple juice, heavy cream, and vanilla to the mixing bowl and beat until combined and thickened.
  3. Add the pineapple and shredded coconut to the pie filling. Stir until evenly combined.
  4. Pour the pie filling into your prepared pie crust. Spread into an even layer.
  5. Cover the pie with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 4 hours, or until the pie is set. Keep the pie refrigerated until ready to serve. The garnishes should be added at the last minute.
  6. To garnish: Uncover the pie. Sprinkle toasted coconut over the top of the pie going almost all the way to the edges. Add whipped cream in dollops around the outer edge of the pie and one in the center. Place cherries evenly around the edge of the pie on top of the whipped cream and then place a cherry on the center dollop.

Notes:

If you can't find coconut cream pudding mix, use vanilla pudding with coconut cream (or coconut milk) instead of heavy cream and omit the vanilla extract. If you want a more authentic Pina Colada flavor, you can also add 1/4 teaspoon of rum extract to the pie filling.

🎉HAPPY REOPENING DAY TOONTOWN!!!!!🎉⠀ ⠀ W 🎉HAPPY REOPENING DAY TOONTOWN!!!!!🎉⠀⠀We loved visiting yesterday for a preview of this reimagined area.  It’s absolutely perfect for getting your wiggles out, having a picnic and yup……..getting your Disney feels fix.⠀⠀My top recommendations when visiting this new area?⠀⠀1) mobile order from Cafe Daisy…..we loved the pizza options and the cold brew⠀2) play play play in Goofy’s How-To-Play Yard, and inside his house…..⠀3) take the time to walk through Minnie and Mickey’s houses, you’ll probably see a surprise friend or two!⠀4) absolutely yes to the picnic basket from Good Boy! Grocer.  It’s a STELLAR price and a really fun experience to pick out your own snacks.⠀5) Mickey’s and Minnie’s Runaway Railway is a perfect full family ride.  I’d suggest trying for this earlier in the day if you can.⠀6) Keep an eye out for Pete, it’s so much fun to see him wandering the area.⠀⠀#Disneyland #Toontown #Mickey #Minnie #MMRR @disneyland @disneyparks invited guest
✨There’s something in my eye…….oh it’s j ✨There’s something in my eye…….oh it’s just pixie dust.⠀⠀When I think of Lydia’s earliest visits to Disneyland….I think of Toontown.  I think of Minnie’s House and meeting Mickey and playing next to Goofy’s House.  I think of the adorable landscape and the magic that the area creates for the youngest and the young at heart.⠀⠀✨Today we visited Toontown for a sneak peek before it’s reopening tomorrow…..and yup, that pixie dust definitely got in my eye.  More than once.⠀⠀Toontown is even more magical than it was (partially thanks to the addition of a cold brew on the menu at Cafe Daisy (good call Disney food and beverage team). ⠀⠀✨My favorite moments from today’s sneak preview?⠀1️⃣ we saw Pete. He’s even better than I’d hoped.2️⃣ I love love love the food options in Toontown! Highlights: the picnic basket snack option Good Boy! Grocers, the cold brew and a delicious gluten free fold over pizza (regular looked great too)3️⃣ the new play areas are amazing! Goofy’s How to Play Area is phenomenal and filled with a ton of new interactions. ⠀Happy reopening Toontown.  Can’t wait to see you again real soon. ⠀⠀Have you visited Toontown? Are you planning to come see all updates?⠀⠀#Disneyland #Toontown #Mickey #Minnie #MMRR @disneyland @disneyparks invited guest

There are people cheering you on…..and you don’t even realize it.I learned a LOT during the 7 months of training for this race.  I learned that I should stretch and warm up (thanks pulled muscle for that life lesson), I learned that small progress over time leads to achieving big goals.  I learned that sunshine and being outside makes me a happier person.  I learned that I’m more of an athlete than I thought I was. But most of all? I learned……there are a whole lot of people in your cheering section and you might not even know they’re sitting there.  After I pulled this muscle, I was amazed by the sweet and kind messages while I tried to prepare to run my first 10k with an injury.  But NOTHING prepared me for the ovwhelming amount of kindness and support that flooded into my inbox when I crossed the finish line.  From the early morning you can do this messages to the ones that came in throughout the race to the inspiring amount of support as I iced my pulled muscle…..it brought me to tears.And the amazing thing? When Jennifer and Lashawn and I found each other at the finish line….they said the same thing.  It’s not just me.  We all have a cheering section.  And wow, do they show up when you may not be expecting them.Got a big goal? Working on something new? Share it in the comments.  I’d love to join your support team.#medalmonday #rundisney
