I AM 83 years old and my mother has been gone for many years, but I'm still using her best recipes. She was a gourmet cook before anyone was using that term and before everyone was counting calories. This was one of our family's favorite desserts when I was growing up, and it's just as good two generations later! —Muriel Fay Walton, Kentucky
Ingredients:
1 egg
1/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 teaspoons butter
1 can (8 ounces) pineapple chunks, drained
1/2 cup green grapes
1/2 cup fresh orange pieces
1/2 cup pastel miniature marshmallows
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar
Directions:
1. In a small saucepan, combine the egg, sugar, lemon juice and butter; cook and stir over low heat for 5-7 minutes or until thickened. Cool.
2. Meanwhile, combine the pineapple, grapes, oranges and marshmallows in a small bowl; set aside. In a small bowl, beat cream and confectioners' sugar until soft peaks form. Fold into fruit mixture. Add cooled dressing. Chill for at least 1 hour. Yield: 2 servings.
