PINEAPPLE-BUTTERMILK SHERBET
This old fashioned, creamy sherbet has been a family favorite for many years prior to moving to Hawaii where we now have all we can eat, fresh from the garden pineapple. It is frozen in a covered freezer container but can also be made in an ice cream maker. Makes about 1 1/2 Quarts.
INGREDIENTS
1 quart buttermilk
1 can (20 ounces) crushed pineapple in heavy syrup or chopped fresh
1 cup sugar
DIRECTIONS
1. Combine the buttermilk, the pineapple with its syrup and the sugar in a large bowl; stir to dissolve the sugar.
2. Pour the mixture into a freezer container. Place the container in the freezer until frozen, stirring once in a while to break up the ice crystals.
BACON WRAPPED PINEAPPLE BITES
I like to stick them under the broiler for the last few minutes to get the bacon really crisp
INGREDIENTS
1 pound bacon
1 can chunked pineapple or fresh (large chunks)
1/2 cup brown sugar
DIRECTIONS
1. Set oven to 375.
2. Cut the pound of bacon in half. Put the brown sugar in a shallow bowl. Dredge a slice of bacon in the brown sugar and wrap around a pineapple chunk. Secure with a toothpick.
3.Put a cookie cooling rack onto a foil-lined jelly roll pan. Lay the bacon pineapple bundles onto the rack.
4. Bake for at least 25 minutes.
