A friend told me that this is the best cake he's ever eaten, reports field editor Fern Eleson of Whitney, Nebraska. Ingredients:
2 cups sugar |
2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
2 teaspoons baking soda |
2 eggs, beaten |
1 can (20 ounces) crushed pineapple, undrained |
1 cup chopped pecans or walnuts |
frosting: |
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened |
1/2 cup butter, softened |
1-1/2 cups confectioners' sugar |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the sugar, flour and baking soda. Combine eggs and pineapple; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Fold in nuts.
2. Transfer to a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan. Bake at 350° for 32-38 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool completely on a wire rack.
3. For frosting, in a large bowl, beat cream cheese and butter until fluffy. Add confectioners' sugar and vanilla; beat until smooth. Frost cake. Store in the refrigerator. Yield: 16 servings.
