PINEAPPLE CREAM

Claudia
Pineapple cream is a light, not too sweet, fresh refrigerated dessert with only 4 natural ingredients and couldn't be easier to make. It's a proven winner.

Prepare the Ingredients

  • Add the 2 packets of unflavored gelatin to 1/2 cup cold water and stir until dissolved.
  • Empty the can of crushed pineapple with the juice to a small saucepan. Add the sugar to the saucepan and simmer for 10 minutes. Then cool until lukewarm.
  • Get a large bowl and pour the lukewarm pineapple mixture in it. If you want to dress it up use a nice serving bowl. If you want to serve it cut into squares use a glass baking dish. (Don't use a metal pan)
  • The gelatin will be jelled. Add it to the lukewarm pineapple in the bowl and mix well until it is fully incorporated.
  • Add the full quart of cream to the bowl and slowly mix all the ingredients together.
  • Refrigerate overnight. It will be firm when it is fully set.

Notes

This is Ann's Grammie Katie's all time family favorite. She was asked to bring it to all family get togethers. It's a great no cook summer pot luck dish that is quick, easy and economical to make, but also a great, not too sweet everyday dessert.
