"I created this fruity, spur-of-the-moment recipe when we needed a light dessert to serve company on a very hot day-and I didn't want to heat up the kitchen. Everything was in the fridge or pantry, and it took no time to prepare!" Audrey Arno, Tuttle, Oklahoma.

The pie was a bit too runny for my taste. I think I'll let it chill in the refrigerator for longer next time.

I found that the pie was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll use less sugar next time.

I'm not a huge fan of coconut, but I actually really liked this pie. The coconut flavor is very subtle.

The pie was a little too sweet for my taste, but I think that's because I used sweetened pineapple. Next time, I'll use unsweetened pineapple and see if that makes a difference.

I added a layer of fresh strawberries to the top of the pie for a pop of color and flavor.

I love how easy this pie is to make. The crust is simply a mixture of crushed graham crackers and melted butter, and the filling is a no-bake mixture of cream cheese, whipped topping, and crushed pineapple.
