This was a big hit at the party; everyone just loved it. Very easy to make; one suggestion, I prepared everything including the pineapple mixture a day before, then added everything together for approx. 6 hours; PERFECT! It wasn't as good the day after(a little soggy is all),(I was lucky enough to take some home) Great recipe, thanks very much.

I have been a Central Illinois resident all my life.
My hobbies include fishing with my husband, reading, counted cross stitch, and of course, cooking (especially baking)!
I currently work in an office, behind a desk, pushing paper. My dream would be to open my own bakery.
Spending time in the kitchen is very relaxing to me, and it keeps me connected to my domestic side!
