Is this in a 9 x 13 pan?

Oh my, that sounds decadent!

Yes, it was baked in a 9 x 13 pan...the preacher's wife baked hers in a 9 x 13 ceramic dish....it was wonderful !

I have the same recipe but mine calls for powdered sugar for the topping.
I've also used fresh, mashed peaches and it was crazy good too!

GrannyG, how many ounces are in your large can of crushed pineapple?

This sounds wonderful and I have everything to make it!

I made it!

I didn't have crushed pineapple so I used a large can of chunks (undrained) and put it through my mini food processor. I used powdered sugar in the frosting. It's delish.
