Delicious! Beautiful too! Presentation is important!
For pineapple filling: Put one small can crushed pineapple in heavy syrup in sauce pan. If your pineapple is in pineapple juice, add 1/3 cup sugar and stir until dissolved. Heat on low heat. Mix 1/4 cup corn starch with several tablespoons of water until medium consistency. When pineapple is heated, add enough liquified corn starch until pineapple juice begins to thicken. Remove from heat and stir in one teaspoon vanilla extract. Cool before topping cake layer.
This recipe is so easy, anyone can put it together.
I enjoy sharing my recipes with you and hope that we as a nation will begin to cook more at home. I hope that we will begin to watch more carefully what we eat. Cooking at home does not have to be expensive, time consuming or hard. Our diets are so full of fat, calories, and food additives that cause disease. I am going to make a concerted effort to improve my family's diet by limiting processed foods. Won't you join me?
We can cook more healthy foods at home for less money than stopping at fast food places. It doesn't have to require all our time either. Check my blog occassionally for new "Easy" recipes. Thanks and wishing you a "Special Valentine's Day! "
