Pineapple Cake Recipe

I don't like Pineapple but this cake is really good-

PINEAPPLE CAKE-



2 Eggs

2 Cups of Flour

2 Cups of Sugar

2 Tsp. Baking Soda

1 Tsp. Vanilla

1 Can 20 ounces of Crushed Pineapple, do not drain

(I have added 1/2 cup or so of sour cream)-



Mix these ingredients together and bake in a 350 degree oven.(9X13 pan) The original recipe says 20-25 min, but I bake it for 35min and then lay tinfoil on top and finish baking. You will need to keep testing it to see when it is done.



While the cake is still warm, frost with the following recipe:



1 pound powdered sugar

8 ounces cream cheese (softened)

1/2 stick of butter (softened or melted)

1 TBSP vanilla



Beat well together. If the frosting is way thick, thin with a little with milk.



The original recipe called for nut in the cake and pecan on top of the frosting. I have not done that when I have made the cake.
