Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
Fold in Pineapple and Whipped Topping:
Gently fold in the drained crushed pineapple and thawed whipped topping until evenly incorporated into the cream cheese mixture.
Assemble the Dessert:
Spread the pineapple cream filling evenly over the chilled graham cracker crust in the baking dish, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Chill and Set:
Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate the dessert for at least 4 hours, or until the filling is set.
