Alice's Elegant Pineapple Fluff Dessert

For as long as I can remember, every week, we had a traditional Sunday dinner and my Grandmother Alice always made some sort of dessert from scratch for this meal. Pineapple fluff was one of her favorites and mine too. I remember making this with her in her kitchen  on numerous occassions. A dessert of the "great generation", I want to keep this one alive. It's also super fast and easy!
Serve in crystal serving pieces and this dessert feels extra fancy! YUM!


Pineapple Fluff

1 large can of crushed pineapple
