Categories     Desserts     Fruit Dessert Recipes     Pineapple Dessert Recipes

Time 1h25m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 cups all-purpose flour
½ cup white sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup unsalted butter
¼ cup milk
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ cup butter
2 (8 ounce) cans crushed pineapple, drained and juice reserved
2 tablespoons white sugar
¼ cup cornstarch
½ cup all-purpose flour
¼ cup butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
⅓ cup white sugar

Steps:

  • Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Cut in butter using a pastry cutter or your hands until coarse crumbs form.
  • Whisk milk, egg, and vanilla extract together in a small bowl. Add to flour mixture and knead until just combined, adding a little more flour if too wet or a little more milk if too dry. Divide the dough into thirds; 2/3 will be for the bottom, save 1/3 for the top.
  • Roll 2/3 the dough out onto a lightly floured surface into an 11x15-inch rectangle. Place dough into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking pan, making sure it comes at least halfway up the sides.
  • Combine pineapple and sugar in a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat, about 5 minutes. Meanwhile, pour reserved pineapple juice into a bowl and add cornstarch; stir until dissolved. Add to the saucepan and stir until thickened, about 5 minutes more. Remove from heat and let filling cool in the refrigerator, about 15 minutes.
  • Scrape filling onto the bottom dough in the baking pan and smooth out.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Roll remaining 1/3 dough out onto a lightly floured surface into a 9x13-inch rectangle. Roll the dough onto the rolling pin and unroll on top of the pineapple filling, making sure edges of the dough reach the edges of the pan.
  • Combine flour and sugar in a small bowl. Add vanilla extract and cut in butter until coarse crumbs form. Sprinkle streusel topping over dough.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool on a rack. Cut into 24 squares.

Tips:

  • Use fresh pineapple. Fresh pineapple has a much better flavor than canned pineapple. If you can't find fresh pineapple, you can use frozen pineapple, but be sure to thaw it completely before using it.
  • Grate the pineapple finely. This will help the pineapple to blend into the filling and frosting smoothly.
  • Use a heavy saucepan. A heavy saucepan will help to prevent the filling from scorching.
  • Cook the filling over medium heat. Medium heat will help to prevent the filling from sticking to the bottom of the saucepan.
  • Stir the filling constantly. Stirring the filling constantly will help to prevent it from scorching.
  • Let the filling cool completely before using it. This will help the filling to set properly.
  • Use the filling between layers of cake or cupcakes. You can also use the filling as a topping for ice cream or fruit salad.
  • Store the filling in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

Conclusion:

This old-fashioned pineapple filling and frosting is a delicious and versatile recipe that can be used in a variety of desserts. The filling is made with fresh pineapple, sugar, butter, and flour, and it has a sweet and tangy flavor. The frosting is made with butter, confectioners' sugar, milk, and pineapple extract, and it is light and fluffy.
