    Hey Auntie Chris! So my mother used to make a coconut pineapple cake with Crushed pineapple in the icing! It was GOOD’T! If I wanted to attempt to make it that way, would I just cook down the crushed pineapple like she used to and fold it into the icing? I’m asking because she didn’t make her icing like you so I want to be sure as to not mess up the icing. Do I let the pineapples cool after cooking them down? Sorry for the LONG comment, but I gotta know! 😬. Love you! Mean it!
