It was a dark, dreary and wet day here....ech! And I thought we would benefit from a little taste of the islands to brighten this day. I found your recipe and I knew that was going to fit the bill. Well...this is just wonderful! The texture was excellent. I had to make a couple of small changes..due to what I had on hand. I only had a 14 oz of pineapple and subbed pecans for the almonds. DH hummed his way through dessert. Thank you for sharing this keeper recipe!!
