Serves 10
- 1½ tbsp butter
- 1½ cup mini marshmallows
- 3 cups Malt-O-Meal Honey and Oat Blenders
- 1- 8 oz pack cream cheese, softened
- ¾ tsp ground ginger
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 1- 8 oz container frozen whipped topping, thawed
- 1 fresh pineapple, peeled, quartered lengthwise and cored
- 1 tbsp sugar
- Microwave butter on high 30 seconds or until melted. Add marshmallows. Microwave on high 1 minute or until marshmallows are completely melted, stirring after 30 seconds. Add cereal and mix lightly to coat. Press firmly onto bottom and up sides of a 10 inch tart pan mold to form crust.
- Beat cream cheese, ginger and powdered sugar in small bowl on medium speed with an electric mixer until well blended and creamy. Add whipped topping. Beat on low speed for 1 minute longer or until just blended. Spread the mixture evenly over crust and refrigerate.
- Preheat grill pan to medium high heat. Cut each pineapple quarter lengthwise into ¼ inch slices. Sprinkle with sugar and mix well. Let stand for five minutes. Place pineapple slices on grill and cook 2-3 minutes each side until tender. Cool completely. Arrange pineapple slices over tart and serve.
