Pineapple Delight Cheesecake
  1. Preheat the oven to 325°F and spray a 9-inch springform pan with cooking spray.

  2. Place Oreo cookies in a food processor (or smash them in a sealed bag) to make fine crumbs.

  3. Pour melted butter slowly into the food processor and pulse until the crust comes together. (Alternatively, stir together in a mixing bowl until evenly moistened.) Press the crumbs into the bottom and up the sides of your springform pan. Bake for 8 minutes, then remove from the oven. Leave the oven on.

  4. Add cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla to a mixing bowl and blend on medium speed until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, beating just until blended.

  5. Pour the batter into the prepared crust. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until set. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely.

  6. Place heavy cream, sugar, and vanilla in a bowl and blend on medium speed until stiff peaks form, then gently fold in the crushed pineapple

  7. Spread the mixture over the cooled cream cheese layer.

  8. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours (overnight is best).

  9. For the topping, preheat the oven to 350°F and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.

  10. Spread coconut flakes over the parchment paper and bake for about 5 minutes, or until golden brown around the edges.

  11. Have fresh pineapple chunks ready to arrange on top of cheesecake slices, and sprinkle with toasted coconut.
