For those of you who enjoy cheese cake, here is a pineapple cheese cake recipe

2½ pounds cream cheese
1-inch piece vanilla bean
¼ pound sweet butter, melted
½ small box graham crackers, crushed fine
4 eggs
2 cups sugar
1 small can crushed pineapple, drained
2 cups milk
1/4 cup flour

In a big bowl mix everything except the graham crackers and pineapple in the order given above. Butter a square Pyrex pan and put in the graham-cracker dust to make,a crust.

Cover this evenly with the pineapple and pour in the cheese-custard mixture. Bake 1 hour in a moderate oven, and when done set aside for 12 hours before eating.
