FROSTED PINEAPPLE SQUARES image

Yield 48 squares

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/3 cup sugar
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 egg yolk, lightly beaten
1 20-ounce can pineapple chunks, undrained
2/3 cup milk
1 teaspoon sugar
1 4-ounce package Fleischmann's Active Dry Yeast
1/4 cup very warm water
4 egg yolks, lightly beaten
4 cups sifted flour
1 cup (2 sticks) margarine or butter
For the glaze:
1 cup powdered sugar, sifted
1-2 tablespoons milk

Steps:

  • 1. Mix 1/3 cup sugar, cornstarch and salt in a saucepan. 2. Stir in egg yolk and pineapple chunks. 3. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until smooth, about 7 minutes. Cool to lukewarm while preparing the dough. 4. Scald milk; add 1 teaspoon sugar; cool to lukewarm. 5. Dissolve yeast in 1/4 cup very warm water; add to milk mixture. Stir in beaten egg yolks. 6. Measure flour into large bowl. Cut butter or margarine into flour using pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles coarse meal. 7. Stir in yeast and milk mixture; blend thoroughly. Dough will be soft and moist. Divide in half. 8. Roll half out on a floured board, approximately 16 by 10 inches or the size of your jellyroll pan with some overlap. 9. Transfer dough to ungreased jellyroll pan and spread with cooled pineapple filling. 10. Roll remaining dough large enough to cover filling and place on top of the filling. Seal edges together. 11. Snip surface of dough with scissors to let steam escape. Cover; let rise in warm place, free from draft, until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour. 12. Bake at 375 degrees for 35 to 40 minutes. Drizzle with powdered sugar glaze, if desired, while still warm. Cut into squares and serve. 13. To make glaze: In a small bowl, combine powdered sugar and milk. Stir until smooth.

I'm not a baker, but these squares were so easy to make! I followed the recipe exactly and they turned out perfect. The pineapple filling was delicious and the frosting was creamy and smooth. I'll definitely be making these again for my next party.

These squares were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I should have added more butter to the crust. The filling was good, but the frosting was a bit too sweet. Overall, I think these squares have potential, but I need to tweak the recipe a bit.

I had some trouble finding canned crushed pineapple, so I used fresh pineapple instead. The squares turned out great! The fresh pineapple gave the filling a brighter flavor. I'll definitely be using fresh pineapple next time.

These squares were a bit too sweet for my taste, but my family loved them. They said the pineapple filling was delicious and the frosting was creamy and smooth. I think I'll try making them again with less sugar next time.

I'm not a big fan of pineapple, but I loved these squares! The filling was sweet and tangy, and the frosting was light and airy. The pecans added a nice crunch. I'll definitely be making these again.

I made these Frosted Pineapple Squares for a bake sale and they sold out in minutes! Everyone loved them. The combination of pineapple and cream cheese is always a winner. I'll definitely be making these again for my next party.
