Return to December Recipe Index
Sue, I haven't made these in years, but if memory serves me
well they were always welcomed in my home.
Coconut Pineapple Bars
1/2 cup soft butter or margarine
1/4 cup sugar
1¼ cups sifted flour
1 No. 2 can crushed pineapple, well drained
1 well beaten egg
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon butter, melted
1½ cups shredded coconut, cut up
Combine 1/2 cup butter and 1/4 cup sugar. Add flour and mix
until crumbs form. Then mix thoroughly with hands until soft
dough forms. Press evenly in bottom of 9 x 9 x 2 inch pan
with about 1/2 inch extending up the sides. Prick bottom
with fork. Bake in 350° oven 15 minutes or until crust
begins to brown. Remove from oven. Spread pineapple evenly
over crust. To egg, add 1/2 cup sugar. Beat until blended.
Fold in 1 Tablespoon melted butter and the coconut. Spread
mixture evenly over the pineapple. Return to oven and bake
20 minutes longer or until topping is lightly browned. Cool.
Cut in 1½ by 3 inch bars. Makes 1½ dozen.
