Preparation

Step 1

In a small bowl, combine the crumbs, butter and sugar; press into a 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Bake at 325° for 10 minutes or until lightly browned; cool. Pour evaporated milk into a large bowl. Cover and chill for at least 2 hours.

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, dissolve gelatin in water; chill until syrupy, about 30 minutes.

Remove milk from refrigerator and beat until stiff peaks form. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Beat in gelatin mixture. Stir in pineapple and 3/4 cup walnuts. Fold in milk. Pour over crust.

Chill for at least 3 hours or overnight. Sprinkle with remaining walnuts before filling is completely set.
