Pour the drained pineapple chunks into the mixing bowl and stir to combine with the other ingredients.

Grease an 8x8 baking dish with butter and pour the pineapple mixture into it.

Crush a sleeve of Ritz crackers and sprinkle them evenly over the top of the pineapple mixture.

Melt 1/2 cup of butter and pour it over the crushed Ritz crackers.

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake the casserole for about 30 minutes until bubbly and golden brown.
