I have quite a few community fundraiser books. I don't look at them too often because they all seem to feature similar common recipes. Today I pick up Cooking in Paradise a fundraiser for The First Evangelical Free Church Of Hawaii Women's Missionary Society from 1979. I have four or five books from Hawaii and they really don't feature recipes that we would think of having an Hawaiian touch. This book came closer than usual with this recipe for Pineapple Fingers:
Pineapple Fingers
Step 1
1 yellow cake mix
2 egg yolks,reserve whites
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 tablespoons melted butter
Combine and press into greased 13 x 9 inch pan.
Step 2
Beat 2 egg whites until stiff
Step 3
Add 2/3 cup sugar to egg whites. Fold in 1/2 cup coconut, and small can crushed pineapple (drained).
Step 4
Spread over cake mixture and bake at 325 degrees for 30 minutes. Cool before cutting.
