2. Prepare Crust: Spoon the flour into a measuring cup and level it off. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour and brown sugar. Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the shredded coconut and sliced almonds until evenly distributed.

3. Bake Crust: Spread the mixture evenly into an ungreased 13×9 inch baking pan. Bake for about 20 minutes or until golden brown, stirring a couple of times during baking to ensure even browning.

4. Set Aside Topping: Once baked, reserve 1/2 cup of the crumb mixture to use as topping later. Press the remaining mixture firmly into the bottom of the pan to form the crust.

5. Prepare Filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the whipping cream, continuing to beat until well combined. Add the milk and instant coconut cream pudding mix, then beat on high speed for 2 minutes or until the mixture slightly thickens.

6. Incorporate Pineapple and Rum: Stir in the drained pineapple chunks and rum until evenly distributed throughout the creamy mixture.

7. Assemble Dessert: Once the crust has cooled, pour the creamy filling over it, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.

8. Add Topping: Sprinkle the reserved crumb mixture over the top of the creamy filling, evenly covering the surface. For an extra touch, consider adding a few toasted almonds on top.

9. Chill: Cover the dessert pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or until the filling is set.

10. Serve: Once thoroughly chilled and set, slice into squares and serve. Enjoy the tropical flavors of this irresistible Pina Colada Dessert with family and friends!
