Pineapple Cake Filling

I needed a last-minute filling for a cake I was baking and decorating for memorial day. I found and decided to try this recipe since I had can of pineapple chunks in the house. I'm so glad I did! I processed the pineapple in my small tabletop electric chopper, which gives a coarser texture than a blender or procxessor, and it was the same as using crushed. I also added maybe a teaspoon extra of cornstarch, which I always do in these types of recipes, just to make sure it's not too runny. It was the perfet consistency, spread well and held the layers well. The flavor was excellent, not too tart, not too sweet, and it seemed to compliment tbe yellow cake, decorator icing, and marshmallow fondant I used to decorate with perfectly. I had made a flag, and got lots of kudos, not only on the look but on the flavor as well. Everyone was impressed! Thank you! This will be my filling of choice from now on and I highly recommend it.

I decided last minute to make my daughters birthday cake, and had a can of pineapple slices, and this sounded perfect. And it was! I used my hand held chopper/blender to chop up the pineapple, and didnt have cornstarch so I used wondra instead. Worked perfectly. Was very sweet! I *might* cut down the sugar a tad next time, but it was so good I just may leave it! My husband was literally eating it out of the bowl as is!

This is absolutely fantastic!!!! I have made it several times since I found the recipe, and it has always been a hit!! Tonight I substituted the pineapple for frozen red rasberries (thawed and to the "crushed" state to mimic the pineapple) and it is absolutely amazing as well!! I'm thinking I could sub any fruit for endless filling options!! I can't wait to do more experimenting!!!!

This filling is amazing! I was looking for one that didn't have egg in it so that it could sit out without spoiling. This one is perfect! In fact, I might make some just to keep in my fridge for putting on toast or pb&j sammies! YUMMO! Thanks so much for sharing!
