Pineapple Marshmallow Pie Recipe – OMG It’s Good!

My husband has been asking me to make a pineapple marshmallow pie for years. It is not something I’ve ever heard of and quite frankly it sounded seriously strange to me, but the begging finally got to me after a decade of marriage so I decided it was time to finally give him what he wanted. The ingredients may sound strange but OMG does this pie taste amazing!

Pineapple Marshmallow Pie Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1/2 Packet Marie Biscuits
• 1/2 Packet Tennis Biscuits
• ⅓ cup butter
• 150g marshmallows
• 1 cup cream
• 1 can condensed milk
• 100 finely chopped pineapple
• ½ cup lemon juice

Method:

• To make the base of the pie crush the biscuits (I put them in a bag and using a rolling pin to crush them finely), melt the butter and mix together then add it to your pie dish evenly and compact it by pushing it with a spoon all over. Put it in the fridge to set for an hour before adding the rest of the pie ingredients.
• Mix the lemon juice and condensed milk together
• In a separate bowl whip the cream into stiff peaks then add the vanilla essence, pineapple pieces and condensed milk mixture and mix through
• Melt the marshmallows in the microwave and add it to the pie mixture and mix through
• Pour it over the biscuit base and refrigerated until it has set

Just a note – please make sure to watch your marshmallows when you microwave them! I popped them in the microwave without a thought and while the marshmallows only took up half the bowl when I looked in they had expanded so high they were about to hit the top of the microwave! Thankfully I saw just in time and managed to prevent a huge mess.

We are big on eating in our home and I’ve started making a new recipe every Sunday, usually a dessert because who doesn’t love a weekend treat right?

The whole family absolutely loved this pineapple marshmallow pie and it didn’t last a day in our house and everyone is requesting it again already! This will make a fantastic dessert for a braai.
