Pineapple Juice Cake

Introduction

Pineapple Juice Cake is a tropical treat that combines the sweet and tangy flavors of pineapple with a moist, tender cake. This dessert is easy to make using simple ingredients like a boxed cake mix, pineapple juice, and a luscious pineapple glaze. Perfect for summer gatherings or whenever you need a burst of tropical flavor, this cake is sure to be a crowd-pleaser.

Ingredients

• 1 box (15.25 oz) yellow or butter cake mix (preferably Betty Crocker or Pillsbury)
• 3/4 cup vegetable oil
• 3/4 cup pineapple juice
• 4 large eggs

For the glaze:

• 2 cups powdered sugar
• 3/4 cup pineapple juice
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Grease and flour a 10 to 12-cup Bundt pan to prevent sticking.
2. Prepare the Cake Batter: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, vegetable oil, pineapple juice, and eggs. Use an electric mixer to beat the mixture for about 2 minutes, until smooth and well combined. Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan.
3. Bake the Cake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes. The cake is done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the cake starts to pull away from the sides of the pan. Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10-15 minutes.
4. Prepare the Glaze: While the cake is cooling, prepare the glaze by combining the powdered sugar, pineapple juice, and melted butter in a small saucepan. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly until the butter is fully melted and the glaze is smooth.
5. Apply the Glaze: Poke small holes all over the warm cake using a skewer or toothpick. Pour about three-quarters of the glaze over the cake while it’s still in the pan, allowing it to soak in for about 15-20 minutes. Once the cake has absorbed most of the glaze, invert it onto a serving plate and drizzle the remaining glaze over the top.

Conclusion

Pineapple Juice Cake is a simple yet delicious dessert that brings the tropical taste of pineapple to your table. The cake’s moist texture and tangy-sweet glaze make it a delightful treat for any occasion. With its ease of preparation and rich flavor, this cake is sure to become a favorite in your dessert rotation.
