How to Make Frosted Pineapple Squares
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, combine the warm water, yeast, and sugar. Let stand for 5 minutes until foamy.
- Add the melted butter, eggs, salt, and vanilla extract. Mix well.
- Gradually add the flour, mixing until a soft dough forms. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl, turning to coat. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
- Roll out the dough to a 12x18 inch rectangle. Spread the pineapple filling evenly over the dough.
- Roll up the dough tightly, starting from the long side. Cut into 12 equal slices.
- Place the slices cut-side up in the prepared pan. Cover and let rise for another 30 minutes.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown.
- While the squares are baking, prepare the frosting. In a medium bowl, beat the butter until light and fluffy.
- Gradually add the powdered sugar and milk, beating until smooth and creamy. Add vanilla extract.
- Once the squares have cooled completely, frost them with the prepared frosting.
