I tried this UNBELIEVABLE cake recipe this weekend, and it BLEW my mind! It was like a tropical vacation in my mouth!

Indulge in a delightful treat with our Easiest Pineapple Cake, effortlessly whipped up using flour, sugar, eggs, and luscious crushed pineapple. A creamy cream cheese frosting adds a touch of bliss!

PIECE OF CAKE! The charm of this Easiest Pineapple Cake takes me back to carefree summer vacations at Grandma’s house. The tantalizing aroma of fresh pineapple wafting through the house was something I eagerly anticipated each year. Grandma had a way of making everything seem effortless; her secret was this one-bowl wonder. No oil, no butter, just pure, unadulterated love and, of course, juicy pineapple. I remember sneaking into the kitchen, hoping to steal a slice before it was frosted, but getting caught every single time. With a twinkle in her eye, she’d laugh and say, “Patience, darling.” This recipe is more than a delightful dessert; it’s an heirloom filled with memories of sun-soaked afternoons, laughter, and family.

INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Preheat the oven to precisely 350°F (180°C).
2. Prepare the Batter: In a large mixing bowl, combine all cake ingredients including flour, sugar, eggs, baking soda, vanilla extract, salt, and crushed pineapple. Mix thoroughly and uniformly.
3. Transfer the Batter: Pour the batter into a pre-greased 9×13 inch rectangular baking pan.
4. Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 35 to 40 minutes, until the top is golden-brown.
5. Create the Frosting: While the cake bakes, prepare the cream cheese frosting by creaming together the butter, cream cheese, and vanilla extract until smooth and lump-free. Gradually add confectioners’ sugar, stirring continuously to maintain a smooth consistency.
6. Frost the Cake: Allow the baked cake to cool slightly, then spread the freshly prepared cream cheese frosting evenly over its surface.
7. Optional Topping: If desired, evenly sprinkle the finely chopped nuts over the frosted cake.
8. Set: Allow the cake to set for a few minutes before serving.

Relish in this delightful dessert and all its nostalgic charm!
