Pineapple Snowballs Recipes

Steps:

• When draining the pineapple, use a fine strainer to push as much juice out as possible. A reviewer has stated this makes the mixture a bit more firm and easier to work with.
• In a small bowl, beat cream cheese and pineapple.
• Mix well.
• Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Roll mixture into 1-inch balls.
• Roll in coconut.
• Refrigerate for 6 hours or overnight.

Steps:

• 1. Create the filling: Mix 1/4 cup of softened butter, 1 tsp of vanilla extract, 1 cup of sugar, walnuts, and crushed pineapple (well-drained).
• 2. Stack each snowball 4 wafers-high putting filling in between.
• 3. Mix the frosting: Prepare 2 boxes of Dream Whip according to directions on the box and add in 1/4 cup sugar and 1 tsp vanilla extract. You may need less frosting given that vanilla wafers are made so small these days (they were a lot bigger when I first made this recipe 55 yrs. ago!).
• 4. Spread the frosting generously over each snowball. Roll them in coconut. Crown with a cherry on top. Refrigerate for 24 hrs. Then, they can be frozen.

• Add the crushed pineapple to the gelatin mix and then fold in 4 cups of the whipped topping.
