Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups granulated sugar
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
20 ounce can crushed pineapple (do not drain)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
2. Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt.
3. Add the eggs, crushed pineapple, and vanilla and mix well.
4. Pour the cake batter into a greased 9×13 inch glass baking dish. Bake the cake for 20 minutes at 325 then cover loosely with foil to prevent over browning. Return to the oven to bake for an additional 5-10 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted into the center of the cake.
5. Cool completely then ice the cake with homemade cream cheese frosting.
Cream Cheese Frosting:
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
4 tablespoons butter, softened
2 cups powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
Beat the butter and cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Add vanilla and powdered sugar and mix well.
Notes
The cake will become quite brown as it bakes. It should be a deep golden brown, similar to the color of baked banana bread.
