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

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. Add Pineapple:
    • Fold in the drained crushed pineapple until evenly distributed.
  5. Assemble the Dessert:
    • Pour the pineapple-cream mixture over the layer of crushed biscuits.
    • If desired, repeat layers: biscuits โ†’ pineapple cream โ†’ biscuits.
  6. Chill:
    • Refrigerate for 2โ€“3 hours to let the flavors meld and the dessert set.
  7. Serve:
    • Garnish with pineapple chunks, grated chocolate, or extra crushed biscuits on top.
    • Serve chilled for the best creamy texture.

Tips & Variations

  • Healthier version: Use low-fat cream or evaporated milk instead of heavy cream.
  • Add crunch: Mix a handful of chopped nuts with the biscuits.
  • Fruity twist: Add some chopped mango, peach, or berries for extra flavor.
  • Quick version: Skip layering and just mix everything, then refrigerate โ€“ still creamy and delicious.
