By Diana Rattray, About.com

Pineapple cream dessert with pineapple tidbits, marshmallows, cherries, and whipped cream, topped with toasted almonds.

Ingredients:

  • 1 can (20 ounces) pineapple tidbits
  • 4 ounces miniature marshmallows, or cut large marshmallows into eighths
  • 1/4 cup maraschino cherries, cut in quarters
  • 1 cup heavy cream, whipped
  • 1/4 cup blanch slivered almonds, toasted*

Preparation:

Drain pineapple, reserving syrup. Combine pineapple, marshmallows, cherries, and 1/4 cup of the reserved syrup. Let stand for 45 to 60 minutes to blend flavors. Fold in whipped cream. Spoon into dessert cups and sprinkle with toasted almonds.
