Pina Colada Crunch Cake
The tropical beach vacation version of our classic crunch cake. Toasted coconut is mixed into a crunchy, buttery granola bar streusel, then sandwiched around a creamy coconut-pineapple filling. Grab your tiny umbrellas—this dessert is worth the indulgence!

Ingredients
  • 16 Nature Valley granola bars Oats and Honey, crushed
  • 1/3 cup toasted coconut
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • 2/3 cup sugar
  • 2 blocks (8 oz each) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 package (3.4 oz) coconut cream pudding mix
  • 1 container (8 oz) extra creamy whipped topping
  • 1 can (8 oz) crushed pineapple
  • Nonstick spray
Steps
  • In a large bowl, stir together crushed granola bars, toasted coconut, melted butter and sugar until well mixed. Press half of the mixture into a 9x9-inch baking pan that has been generously sprayed with nonstick spray.

  • In a stand mixer, beat together cream cheese, sweetened condensed milk, pudding mix and whipped topping until smooth. Fold in the pineapple, mixing well. Spread whipped mixture on top of crust.

  • Top with remaining granola bar mixture.

  • Cover with plastic wrap and freeze until firm, about 4-6 hours. For best results, remove the cake from the freezer about 10 minutes before serving. To serve, slice and share.
