Pineapple Cake



From the kitchen of Connie Putano



_______________________________________


Connie got this recipe from Lena Sardo. Pineapple filling is layered between soft crumbly dough, then cut into bars.



Mix:

2 c flour

1/2 c sugar

1/2 c shortening

2 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp salt

Reserve a handful.

To the remainder add:

2 eggs

1/3 c milk

1/2 tsp baking soda

1 tsp vanilla

Mix well.

Thinly cover bottom of 13 x 9 pan with half of dough.

Batter will be sticky.

Filling:

1 can crushed pineapple (20 oz)

1/4 c sugar

3 Tbsp tapioca

Cook all until thick.

Cool.

Spread cooled pineapple filling over dough.

Use other half of dough to cover filling.

Do this by using a spoon & a knife, making strips instead of completely covering filling.

Sprinkle top with reserved crumbs.


Bake @ 350, for 25 minutes.
