Glazed Vanilla Pineapple — Girls LOVE it!

I have been making this recipe for Glazed Vanilla Pineapple for a few years now. The first time I made it, I cooked it for a group of my girlfriends who were at my house for drinks and crafts. It was the first time that I had ever made a dessert for a girl’s night out, when everyone went back for seconds. I used butter, rum and ice cream in the original version.

Lighten Recipes UP!

I am always looking for ways to lighten up a recipe and recently I found Brummel & Brown Spread at my local Target.

I found that I like Brummel & Brown spread on my toast in the morning because it’s made with nonfat yogurt which adds a creamy taste with a nice little tang. The fact that it has 50% less calories than butter with 0g Trans Fats and No Hydrogenated oils is extra appealing to me.

This got me thinking, where else could I substitute the Brummel & Brown Spread? When I checked the Brummel and Brown’s Facebook page, I saw a lots of recipes. I was surprised at the versatility of the brand.

I remade my Glazed Vanilla Pineapple substituting Brummel & Brown Spread for the butter and used vanilla instead of rum for the flavoring. The dish turned out pretty, but as I had served the original recipe with ice cream, I felt it needed a glaze. So I made a glaze from the Brummel & Brown Spread as well. The recipe follows.

This showy dish served warm will be the star of your summer picnic or winter soiree. The nonfat yogurt in the spread adds a tang to the pineapple and a creaminess to the glaze while adding a lower calorie twist!
