PINEAPPLE SQUARES

Steps:

• Measure the graham crumbs into a small bowl and make a small well in the centre.
• Pour the sugar into the well, then pour the melted butter onto the sugar.
• Let this stand for a couple of minutes to let the butter seep into the sugar. Then stir well to combine all ingredients together. The purpose of this step is to get a good contact between the butter and sugar.
• Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9x9 inch baking pan that has been lightly greased and lined with parchment paper. (For a thinner version with less frosting at the centre you can use a 9x13 inch pan and get 50% more squares too. See NOTE for adjustments below.)
• Cream together the butter and cream cheese until smooth.
• Beat in the vanilla extract.
• Slowly start adding the icing sugar a little at a time.
• Beat until smooth and the consistency of the frosting is very stiff. Usually you would consider it too stiff to frost a cake at this stage.
• Fold in the finely diced pineapple. The pineapple should be drained of all juice. I actually let mine sit in a colander lined with paper towels.
• Spread evenly over the prepared base and chill for several hours or overnight.
• Beat together the 3 ingredients until stiff peaks form. Spread evenly over the chilled pineapple frosting layer.
• Store in the fridge until ready to cut and serve.

• Dough should be pliable enough to be able to roll out on a floured surface. Divide into 2 pieces.
• Take one piece and roll out dusting with sufficient flour to prevent sticking. Using a 12x17 cookie sheet with sides, place dough into ungreased pan allowing the sides to come up the sides. Don't cut off excess dough.
• Pour in filling and even out making sure the corners are evenly filled inches (Filling recipe follows).
• Again, flour surface and roll out other piece of dough and place on top.
