Yes, yet another dessert recipe! If you can tell, I have a bit of a sweet tooth!
This one is more of a tribute to my mom and her Lutheran “Church Lady” Friends. It is one, that many people have probably tried in the past. Its a great option for spring and may even be fun for Easter. It is so easy! If you have the ingredients on hand, really makes a nice fast dessert. Serve with ice cream or whipped cream!
1 can crushed pineapple (large size)
1 yellow cake mix
1 1/2 sticks of butter, melted
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/3-1/2 cup crushed nuts (I used pecans as my husband does not like walnuts)
Directions: Spread pineapple in pan. I used 9×13 cake pan. Then sprinkle dry cake mix on pineapple. Follow with melted butter, brown sugar and nuts.
Bake at 350 degree oven for 40-45 minutes.
I had to include this super old recipe card from my mom’s box. (circa 1975) with a nod of credit to an old Bethany Lutheran Church member, Liz Eggers. You can tell by the age and condition of the card that it has been used plenty of times!
