Little River, TX | My Wife got this from some magazine. We like Pineapple Upside Down Cake, but it can be a little dry at times. This cake is not dry, in fact it is sweet enough & moist enough that no Frosting or icing is needed or desired by me. (I scrape the frosting off as it is too sweet with the frosting.) You might try a lemon frosting OR better yet cut back on the sugar. I am going to suggest The little lady cut back on the sugar, next time.
Pineapple chunks cake.
2 eggs, beaten 1½ cups of sugar ½ cup of cooking oil 1 teaspoon vanilla 2 cups of all-purpose flour 1½ teaspoons baking powder ½ teaspoon baking soda 1 cup chopped nuts 2 cups of your favorite cream cheese frosting or canned cream cheese flavored frosting
o Stir together eggs, sugar, oil, and vanilla in a large mixing bowl . Stir in undrained pineapple. Combine flour, baking powder and baking soda. Add egg to mixture. Stir until well combined. Stir in nuts. Pour batter into a greased, 13 by 9 by 2 inch pan.
o Bake cake in 350° oven for 30 to 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack.
o Spread frosting atop of cooled cake. Garnish with walnut or pecan halves. Store any left over cake in refrigerator.
