How to make this recipe
First step you need to Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F & place rack in the centre of the oven.
Second step : In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs & 1/2 cup melted butter/margarine. Press the mixture into an 8x8" or 9x9" baking pan. Bake for 10 mins, then cool completely on a wire rack.
Third step : In a separate bowl, mix together the 1/2 cup softened butter/margarine, icing sugar, egg, & vanilla with an electric mixer until smooth. Spread this mixture over the crust once it has completely cooled. Bake for 15 min, then remove & cool completely on a wire rack.
Step 4 : Prepare your whipped cream of choice. If using a carton of whipping cream, beat the cream in a medium bowl until it is thick & stiff. You may want to add 2 Tbsp. of white sugar & 1 tsp. vanilla extract for sweetness & flavour. Drain the juice from the canned crushed pineapple. Mix the whipped cream & pineapple together & spread evenly over top of the cooled butter filling.
Final step : Garnish the dessert with a sprinkle of graham cracker crumbs. Keep chilled & serve cold.
