How to Make Pineapple Snow
- Sprinkle 2 teaspoons of unflavored gelatin over 1/4 cup cold water in a small bowl. Let it bloom for 5 minutes.
- In a saucepan, combine 2 cups crushed pineapple (fresh or canned, drained), 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and a pinch of salt.
- Heat the pineapple mixture over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the sugar dissolves and the mixture begins to simmer.
- Remove from heat and immediately stir in the bloomed gelatin until completely dissolved.
- Pour the mixture into a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface to prevent a skin from forming, and refrigerate until it begins to thicken but is not fully set (about 2-3 hours).
- In a separate bowl, whip 1 cup heavy cream with 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the chilled pineapple mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour the mixture into a lightly oiled or sprayed 1.5-quart mold (or individual serving dishes).
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the dessert to fully set.
- To unmold, dip the mold briefly in warm water and invert onto a serving platter.
