Pineapple Dejavu from Anika Atif Temptations
Pineapple Dejavu
from Anika Atif Temptations
The ingredients were, 1 tin condensed milk, 1 tin evaporated milk, 1 tin Pineapple, a little pineapple essence ( optional) and 2 eggs.
All you had to do was put all the ingredients in a blender and blend until everything was smooth. Then bake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees centigrade/ gas mark 4 for 25 to 30 minutes depending on your oven.
The best part about this dessert is that you can have it warm immediately or you can let it cool at room temperature. Also you can freeze it for 2 to 3 hours. Everytime it has a different taste.
Try it, its super easy and worth making.
note
Anika Atif Temptations For 1 cup (8 oz / 250 ml) Evaporated Milk, substitute 1 cup (8 oz / 250 ml) water plus 1 dry cup (4.5 oz / 125g) of powdered milk.
Or, put twice the amount of fresh milk that you need in a saucepan, and let it slowly simmer until only half remains in the saucepan. This will take time.
Or, just use the same amount of cream
