Steps:
- Slice the top and bottom off the pineapple, stand it on end, and slicing straight down, remove all the prickly peel.

- Place the pineapple fans in a large, non-metallic bowl, add the Port and toss to mix.
- Cover and chill 3 to 4 hours.
- Add the minced mint and chill another 30 minutes.
- To serve, spoon into stemmed glasses and garnish with mint sprigs.
- Note: While this is lovely as it is, you can dress it up into an extraordinary recipe by serving it, parfait style, with Coconut Sorbet (recipe 170147) or with Greek style yogurt sweetened with honey.

Spread chilled pineapple into bottom of crust; pour filling over, tapping sides of pan to make sure filling is smooth and even. Dough should be even at top, trimmed to about 1/2 inch above the level of the cheese filling. Preheat oven to 300 degrees. F.
