I've always use the crushed, but I suppose you could use something else and just process as fine as you like. Try it and see!

Can you use any canned pineapple, provided you run it through a food processor? We usually have the chunks or rings on hand, not crushed. How fine should the pineapple be?

With mine you melt the butter, so I just use a 3-qt saucepan, melt the butter and add the rest of the ingredients. If it were me, I'd bake the bars earlier in the week and cover them well. I think they're moist enough not to dry out. I don't sprinkle them with powdered sugar, because I think it makes them sticky.

I'm intending to make these for a party on Saturday. I'm going to be pressed for time later in the week and was thinking of preparing the batter earlier in the week to bake Saturday just before the party. The question is, does this recipe look like something that will hold up well if refrigerated for two to three days? The other option would be to bake earlier in the week, but I don't want them to dry out by Saturday. I haven't baked in a while and am having trouble thinking this through. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks. Deb Pineapple Nut Bars Ingredients: 2 cups sugar 1/2 cup melted butter or margarine 4 eggs 1 1/2 cups flour 1/2 tsp salt 1/2 tsp soda 1 16-ounce can crushed pineapple, well drained 1 cup chopped nuts Combine sugar and butter, beat in eggs, one at a time, and add sifted dry ingredients, alternately with pineapple. Add nuts and mix well. Bake in a greased and floured 14 by 10 by 2 inch pan at 375 degrees for 35 to 40 minutes. Cool, cut into bars and sprinkle with confectioners' sugar. _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list [email protected] http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list [email protected] http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark -- Have a great day, Alex Hall [email protected] _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list [email protected] http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark
