Notes
If using whipping powder, use 3 packs with 1 cup of milk, beat till thick. Then repeat the process.
Crushed pineapple shouldn't have too much liquid. If you do feel there is too much, then you may drain a few tablespoons.
The original recipe used macadamia nuts and marshmallows, but I replaced it with pecans and didn't include marshmallows. You may stick to the original recipe.
For a dimensional flavoring, you may add some cinnamon powder while folding in.
