Recipe Introduction
This is my emergency standby cake to make in case of drop in company.Here in Florida we do a lot of quick evening get togethers,
and this is so easy and quick to whip up and so-o-o DELICIOUS. I always keep the items in stock.
List of Ingredients
1 can (20 oz.) crushed, unsweetened pineapple - undrained
2 tsp. baking soda
2 eggs, beaten
2 cups self-rising flour
2 cups sugar
2 tsp. vanilla
1 cup chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans) Recipe
Dump pineapple (juice included) and baking soda in small bowl and set aside. Just before adding to other ingredients gently stir.
In large mixing bowl-add eggs, flour and sugar. Stir by hand.
Add pineapple mixture and vanilla. Stir and mix well. Slowly add the nuts, mixing well.
Bake in a 350 degrees oven. Pour into a greased and floured 9 x 13 oblong pan (I just spray with Baker's Joy no stick spray/flour). Bake
for about 35 -45 minutes depends on oven. I alway stick the cake with a wooden toothpick or a wooden skewer-when it comes out clean it's done.
Cool and frost. Makes a rich and moist cake.
Frosting:
1/4 cup butter or margarine-soften
2 cups powdered sugar
2 Tbsp. milk
1/4 tsp. vanilla
Cream cream cheese and butter until fluffy. Stir in confectioners sugar and vanilla and mix well. Spread over cake.
** For those who aren't frosting eaters (NOT ME FOR SURE) Before baking cake you may sprinkle top with a cup of brown sugar and 1/2 cups of nuts and than bake as directed. This makes like a crumb top. Than when serving you can top with whipped topping like Cool Whip or can whip cream.
Like I said I love the frosting on top. Give me that rich fattening stuff anytime - yes, it does mean more pounds but it's worth a few more minutes of walking to make it disappear!!! Enjoy.. Dottie
