Mom’s Cherry Crumb Cake

This simple dessert is the cure for plain vanilla ice cream.  Unless, of course, you happen to like plain vanilla ice cream.  Then, it just makes your ice cream irresistible.  With just a few simple ingredients, you can make a crumb cake that will please a crowd.  This recipe calls for a can of crushed pineapple, but I only had fresh pineapple at home, so feel free to substitute if needed.
