Directions
Recipe by: Fannie Flagg's Original Whistle Stop Cafe Cookbook Beat margarine until creamy; beat in cream and sugar until smooth. Spread in pie shell. Slice banana; chop pineapple and pat dry with paper towels. Arrange banana and pineapple on top of cream mixture, and press in firmly. Spread whipped topping on pie; sprinkle with pecans and cherries. Refrigerate 2 hours; store in refrigerator after cutting. YIELD: 1 9-inch pie
NOTES : Crushed pineapple doesn't work well in this pie, because the liquid in it makes the pie water. That is why the tidbits are patted dry.
