Gather These Goodies:

• For the Cake:
  • A sweet cup and a half of sugar
  • Two cups of trusty all-purpose flour
  • A teaspoon of baking soda for lift
  • A little salt for balance
  • Two eggs to bind it all together
  • A can of crushed pineapples for that tropical twist
  • Brown sugar and chopped pecans for a nutty, caramelized topping
• For the Glaze:
  • Creamy evaporated milk
  • More sugar (because why not?)
  • A stick of butter for richness
  • A splash of vanilla for that aromatic finish

Let’s Bake Some Magic:

1. Kick things off by heating your oven to 350°F. Get your baking dish all greasy and ready.
2. In a big bowl, whisk your dry cake ingredients. Dive in with the eggs and pineapple, mixing until it’s just right.
3. Pour this batter into the dish. Sprinkle with a layer of brown sugar and pecans for a sweet crunch.
4. Pop it in the oven for about 45 minutes. You’re waiting for that perfect golden moment.
5. As the cake does its thing, boil up evaporated milk, sugar, and butter. Off the heat, whisper in the vanilla.
6. Once your cake is all baked and warm, drench it in that creamy glaze.
7. Wait (if you can!) for it to cool down. This lets the cake soak up all that glazy goodness.

Slice up this Tropical Pineapple Cake and serve up a piece of paradise on a plate. Perfect for sharing (or not)! 🍍🍰🌞
