This yummy recipe from my husband's sister, Gloria, is a favorite when we gather with our five married children, reports Janis Garrett of Macon, Georgia.
Ingredients:
1 package (6 ounces) lemon gelatin
2 cups boiling water
2 cups miniature marshmallows
4 large ripe bananas, cut into 1/4-inch slices
1 can (20 ounces) crushed pineapple
2 cups cold water
1/2 cup sugar
2 tablespoons king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons butter
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Directions:
1. Sprinkle gelatin over boiling water. Remove from the heat; stir until gelatin is completely dissolved, about 5 minutes. Stir in marshmallows until melted. Stir in bananas. Drain pineapple, reserving juice. Add pineapple and cold water to gelatin mixture.
2. Pour into a 13-in. x 9-in. pan; chill until set. In a small saucepan, combine the sugar and flour. Gradually stir in reserved pineapple juice. Add butter; bring to a boil. Cook and stir for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat; cool to room temperature, about 35-40 minutes.
3. In a small bowl beat the cream until firm peaks form; fold into pineapple juice mixture. Spread over gelatin mixture. Sprinkle with nuts. Chill for 1-2 hours. Yield: 16-20 servings.
