found in DH's grandma's recipe box titled Peaches 'n Cream Cheesecake, with the note that canned pineapple chunks could be substituted instead of the peaches. We tried it that way and it was so good! This is not a typical firm cheesecake, but more of a cake with fruit baked in, topped with a soft creamy cheese.

    Very good! I had to substitute instant pudding, too, as it is all I had one hand. We ate it warm; I'm sure it has a different taste & consistency when cold. I didn't find it too sweet. Definitely will make this again.

    Wow!!!! This was truely a winner. Everyone at my Bible Study loved it. I used pineapple and instant vanilla pudding since that is what I had on hand. The only thing I would do next time is reduce the sugar and possibly use sugar free pudding mix. It was on the edge of being just too sweet and I think it would be even better with less sugar. The sweetness takes away from the pineapple flavor and cream cheese. I will be making this often since it is soo easy and I usually have all the ingredients on hand.
