Ingredients:
2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
2 cups crushed pineapple, drained
2 cups shredded coconut
1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
1/4 cup pineapple juice
1/4 cup coconut rum (optional)
2 cups whipped topping (such as Cool Whip), thawed
Maraschino cherries, for garnish
Directions:
In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish to form the crust.
In another bowl, mix together the crushed pineapple, shredded coconut, sweetened condensed milk, pineapple juice, and coconut rum (if using).
Spread the pineapple mixture evenly over the graham cracker crust.
Spread the whipped topping over the pineapple layer, smoothing it out with a spatula.
Cover the baking dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until set.
Before serving, garnish the Pina Colada Lush with maraschino cherries.
Cut into squares and serve chilled.
