    Pineapple Squares, These squares are so popular in our N E Pa area and are often requested for bake sales At times more flour, little at a time, may have to be added to make it easier to roll without the dough falling apart It is a very forgiving dough, though If you seem to have extra filling left over it may be used to make small tarts using pie crust dough , Happy to see this recipe- sounds like the one my Grandmother would make for my Mom when we visited my Grandparents in Portage when I was a kid Look forward to making when I can have others to help eat Thank-you!, We always had these for every occasion Best when eaten cold Stores well in frig for couple days only We never had it last that long !!
