Made this for Bible study group and everyone raved about it!! I love it too. Was so moist and the leftovers were even better the next day!
I have been making this exact recipe for years and it is always a big hit. Family and friends love it. I was a travel nurse and I would make it at least once for every 3 month assignment and was always asked for the recipe. It’s easy to make. It is a dense cake but moist and delicious. The cream cheese frosting is a must on this cake!
I followed the recipe directions as written except my can of pineapples were 20 ounce instead of 15. I guess maybe that was the cause because my cake had no flavor. It was bland tasting even with the cream cheese frosting. I’ve made the Precious Pineapple Cake on here before and it is really good. I guess I’ll stick with that one next time.
This cake recipe was horrible. Dense and chewy.
This is good but a little on the bland side. I used a 20oz can of pineapple and 1 cup of coconut sugar. Very moist, not too sweet, but quite dense. I will try adding some shredded coconut next time.
This cake is easy and delicious. I did reduce the sugaR to 1 and 1/2 cups. I added pumpkin pie spice to give it more flavor. I used the cream cheese frosting. A family favorite now.
This cake is amazing, big hit with my whole family! I read the reviews before making and did use the cream cheese frosting 2 recipe that some suggested.
This cake is fantastic! Made exactly per the recipe, it is moist and a little chewy, with a crisp top, that goes perfectly with whipped cream, ice cream or served alone. It is simple and delicious!
There is way too much sugar in the recipe and the texture is totally bizarre.
I made this tonight for a dinner party. I did take some of the comments into account and changed a few things. First, I used a 20oz can of crushed pineapple. Also, used 1C of sugar and 1C of brown sugar. I added 1/4 ts of both cinnamon and nutmeg. I beat the eggs first, added the vanilla then the pineapple before mixing into the dry ingredients. I baked for 50 minutes. Used the Cream Cheese Frosting II and sprinkled half with toasted coconut and half in pecan chips (not everyone likes coconut). I left with many compliments and an empty dish.
my kids loved. only did heaping cup of sugar, since used can pineapple in syrup (2 cups was sweet enough). the cake was a bit too moist/soggy for me- better baked as muffins.
It’s very easy to make and tastes very good. It just needs something not sure what but maybe apple pie spice? We frosted it with cool whip and instant vanilla pudding!!
This cake was so delicious . Moist and full of flavor. Especially with the cream cheese frosting. Yummy. I can’t for the life of me understand the comment that it was so tough she couldn’t cut it with a fork?? Definitely did something wrong. Very moist cake!!
This was such a HUGE hit with my family. I have had to make this cake 3 times in less than a month!
Cake is great! Moist and delicious and easy to make.
Used brown sugar and added a cup of shredded coconut and a pinch of salt. Big hit! Today I added a can of no sugar added cherry pie filling in addition to the pineapple and it excellent. I think I will cut the sugar (brown only) to 1 1/2 cups when adding the cherries as it was very rich and sweet.
Love this very easy-to-make cake! Added crushed pineapple to the cream cheese frosting and it was a big hit.
This cake was very bland and hard to cut. Next time I’m adding more vanilla and maybe some cinnamon. The frosting is what made it better.
The only thing I substituted was walnuts instead of pecans. My family loved it and my co-workers raved about it. Will definitely make this again.
This was a quick and very easy cake to make. I made it as the directions stated, but next time I will cut the sugar in half because it was a little sweet but it was delicious. I also made a cream cheese frosting to go on top which made it even better. Thanks for a great recipe.
I thought this was very easy to make and turned out moist and sweet, even without adding frosting. I would prefer this to be in bundt form, wonder what the cooking time and temperature would be for that?
