1 (20 oz.) can crushed pineapple in heavy syrup
1 (3 oz.) pkg. orange Jello
1/2 pt. heavy cream
1/2 c. sugar
16 lady fingers (1 1/2 pkg.)

1. Heat to boiling sugar and pineapple on medium heat, stirring constantly. Add pineapple mix to orange Jello in mixing bowl, stir until Jello dissolves. Chill for 1 hour until mixture thickens.

2. Whip heavy cream without flavoring. Fold into pineapple mixture. Line bottom of 6 x 8 x 2 inch glass pan with split lady fingers inside facing up. Alternate layers of pineapple mix with lady fingers, 2 layers of each ending with pineapple. Chill for at least 2 hours, the longer the better (also the sloppier the better!) Garnish with flavored whipped cream if desired.
