You know what my family's favorite frosting is? Marshmallow/cream cheese. I still coat my cake tins the old fashioned way like my Grandmother, light coat of butter, then flour. Tap around pan and remove excess into garbage.

Hi VL! Ha, you have two mixers!! This cake sounds divine! I bet a pinch of ground cloves or cinnimon in the pineapple puree would be tasty.

[@btcrazee1]

I wonder if can use self rising flour? I am so making this. I might not wait for the next get together.
