Ingredients
1cupheavy whipping cream
3tbsppowdered sugar
1cupcoconut cream
5ozpineapple Greek yogurt
8ozcream cheesesoftened
juice of half a limeplus zest for garnish
2large pineapples
Instructions
In a large bowl, beat the whipping cream and powdered sugar with a hand mixer until stiff peaks form, about 3-4 minutes.
In another bowl, beat the coconut cream, pineapple yogurt, softened cream cheese, and lime juice with a hand mixer.
Fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture and stir until combined.
Refrigerate for at least an hour for the best flavor and texture.
Cut the bottoms and tops off each pineapple, then cut vertical slices from the pineapple all the way to the core. Cut each vertical slice in half width-wise as well as length-wise, then use a crinkle cutter to cut out fry shapes. Note: Make sure to cut the pineapple fries thick enough so they will not break when dipping.
Spoon the coconut cream dip into a small bowl, then arrange the pineapple fries on a plate around the dip. Optional: Top the coconut cream dip with lime zest.
