Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

1 Pineapple
1/4 c Sugar
3 tb Rum -- * see note
1/4 c Butter or margarine

-----------------------NATILLAS SAUCE----------------------------
1 pt Light cream
1/4 ts Salt
1/4 c Sugar
3 Eggs -- ** see note
1 ts Cornstarch
1 ts Vanilla extract

* Use 1 teaspoon rum flavoring instead of rum if desired. ** Use 1
whole egg and 2 egg yolks.

Lay pineapple on side and cut a thick slice off one side, being
careful not to cut into the leaves. Carefully scoop out the insides
and cut into bite-sized pieces. Sweeten the pieces to taste with the
sugar. Mix in the rum or rum flavoring. Put mixture back into shell
and dot with butter. Wrap the pineapple, including leaves, with foil.
Bake for 20 minutes at 350 degrees. Replace the top, serve warm on
pretty platter with the chilled sauce.

SAUCE: Scald the light cream (or half-and half); cool slightly. Add
the salt, sugar beaten with 1 whole egg and 2 egg yolks, cornstarch
and vanilla. Cook in double boiler over simmering water, stirring
constantly, until smooth and slightly thickened. Chill.
