INGREDIENTS

  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup butter or margarine
  • FILLING:
  • 1 (8 ounce) can crushed pineapple

DIRECTIONS

  1. In a bowl, combine the flour, sugar and salt; cut in butter until crumbly. Press into the bottom of an ungreased 8-in. square baking pan. Bake at 325 degrees F for 12 minutes. Cool. Meanwhile, drain pineapple, reserving juice; set pineapple and juice aside. In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar and flour. Add egg and mix until smooth. Add pineapple juice.
