Mom'S Fruit Salad With Cooked Dressing - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    For the dressing
    2 tablespoons flour
    1/2 cup sugar
    2 eggs
    1 (20 ounce) can pineapple tidbits, juice of
    1 lemon, juice of
    1 orange, juice of
    vinegar (approx. 1 T)
    1 grated lemon, rind of
    1/2 grated orange, rind of
    1/2 pint whipping cream, whipped
    2 gallons of cut-up fruit
    2 -3 apples
    2 oranges
    3 -4 bananas
    1 (20 ounce) can pineapple tidbits (you used the juice in the dressing!)
    1 cup grapes
    1 cup cherries (fresh, frozen, or canned)
    fruit (in season, canned, or frozen)
    miniature marshmallow (to taste(I use 1/2 bag)
Preparation
    Whisk the flour & sugar together. Beat eggs until light, and whisk in flour & sugar.
    Drain a can of pineapple tidbits into a 2-cup measure, add the lemon and orange juices, and pour in enough vinegar to make 1-1/4 cups total liquid.
    Add to the egg mixture. Cook in double boiler, stirring constantly, until thickened.
    Chill thorougly, then fold in whipped cream.
    Fold into your mixed fruit--you really can use whatever fruit you have on hand. I've added mango, pears, starfruit, kiwi, and I can't remember what all!
    Chill and enjoy!
