This is sooo easy to make. Make sure your pineapple is very dry or it won't set up firm. If you want a sweeter dip, add 1/2 cup of confectioners sugar. You don't have to use frozen coconut, just make sure it's fresh. I only used 2tsp. of ginger and it is ok. It's really a big hit when served in a real pineapple. Use an electric knife to trim out a hole. Don't scrape too close to the edge. Coat with lemon juice to keep the color bright.
