Pineapple Fool

Pineapple Fool
2 cups (1-inch) cubed fresh pineapple
1/2 cup water
1 tablespoon chopped crystallized ginger
- 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 cups frozen reduced-calorie whipped topping, thawed
Combine the first 3 ingredients in a medium saucepan, and bring to a
boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 10 minutes or until liquid almost
evaporates. Add sugar and lemon juice, and cook over medium-high heat
for 8 minutes or until slightly syrupy. Place the pineapple mixture in a
blender; process until smooth. Pour the mixture into a bowl; cover and
chill.
Reserve 1/4 cup of chilled pineapple mixture. Fold the whipped topping
into the remaining chilled pineapple mixture. Spoon 1/2 cup of the
pineapple mixture into each of 6 glasses, and chill. Top each serving
with 2 teaspoons of the reserved pineapple mixture before serving. Makes
6 servings.
