How to Make Pineapple Dessert
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium saucepan, whisk together eggs and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Stir in the melted butter, crushed pineapple, and vanilla extract.
- Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon (about 10-15 minutes).
- Remove from heat and stir in the chopped walnuts.
- Let the pineapple mixture cool completely.
- While the mixture cools, prepare the Jell-O according to package directions. Let it set until slightly thickened and syrupy, but not fully set.
- Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with a single layer of graham crackers, breaking some to fill gaps as needed.
- Spread the cooled pineapple mixture evenly over the graham cracker layer.
- Top with another layer of graham crackers.
- Once the Jell-O has thickened, whisk it vigorously for a couple of minutes until it becomes light and fluffy.
- Gently pour the fluffy Jell-O over the top layer of graham crackers.
- Refrigerate for at least 4-5 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the dessert to set completely.
- Cut into squares and serve chilled.
