Ingredients
- 1 can (400g) crushed pineapple, drained
- 1 cup heavy cream or whipping cream
- 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
- 1/2 cup crushed biscuits (Marie, digestive, or tea biscuits)
Optional Garnish: pineapple chunks, grated chocolate, or extra crushed biscuits
Instructions
-
Prepare the Biscuits:
- Crush the biscuits into small pieces (either finely for a smoother texture or coarsely for crunch).
- Spread a layer of crushed biscuits at the bottom of your serving dish or individual cups.
-
Whip the Cream:
- In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form.
- Soft peaks mean the cream holds shape but bends slightly when you lift the whisk.
-
Combine with Condensed Milk:
- Gently fold the sweetened condensed milk into the whipped cream until fully blended.
- Avoid over-mixing to keep it light and airy.
-
Add Pineapple:
- Fold in the drained crushed pineapple until evenly distributed.
-
Assemble the Dessert:
- Pour the pineapple-cream mixture over the layer of crushed biscuits.
- If desired, repeat layers: biscuits โ pineapple cream โ biscuits.
-
Chill:
- Refrigerate for 2โ3 hours to let the flavors meld and the dessert set.
-
Serve:
- Garnish with pineapple chunks, grated chocolate, or extra crushed biscuits on top.
- Serve chilled for the best creamy texture.

- Fruity twist: Add some chopped mango, peach, or berries for extra flavor.
