Pineapple Cream Cheese Crisp

Another Brandy Original

1 8in cake pan
2 cups crushed graham crackers
1 stick of butter
Lg can of pineapple chunks, or frozen or fresh
1 3oz package cream cheese softened
1 package jiffy yellow cake mix
1/2 cup packed brown sugar

Preheat oven to 375

My favorite way to crush graham crackers is by putting them is a sandwich size ziplock and beating them with a hammer but a food processor works well too.

Melt half of stick of butter and mix with graham crackers press into bottom of pan.

Mix pinapple chunks, brown sugar and cream cheese

pour over cracker crust

Sprinkle dry cake mix over the top

Melt other half stick of butter and drizzle over cake mix

Cook for 30 mintues or until desired cripsness is reached

Famous Chocolate Refrigerator Roll

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 cups heavy cream, whipped, or 8-ounce container frozen whipped topping, thawed

9-ounce package Nabisco Famous Chocolate Wafers

Chocolate curls, for garnish

Stir vanilla into whipped cream or topping. Spread 1/2 tablespoon whipped cream or topping on each wafer. Begin stacking wafers together and stand on edge on serving platter to make a 14-inch log (I make 2 7in. logs side by side for a smal rectangular cake). Frost with remaining whipped cream or topping. Chill overnight. To serve, garnish with chocolate curls; slice roll at 45-degree angle.

Serves 12

Source: The recipe for this simple but impressive-looking dessert has appeared on the Nabisco Famous Chocolate Wafers box for more than 50 years. These wafers are generally found near the Ice cream cones rather than the cookie aisle. Can often be difficult to locate so don't be afraid to ask.
