- Add Pineapple and Coconut: Gently stir in the drained crushed pineapple and shredded coconut until evenly combined, infusing the dip with tropical flavors and texture.

- Ensure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature for easier mixing.
- Drain the crushed pineapple thoroughly to prevent the dip from becoming watery.
- For added texture, you can lightly toast the shredded coconut before adding, but this is optional.
- Prepare the dip a few hours ahead to allow flavors to blend and chill properly.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
