Debbie's Notes:

We stumbled on this recipe in one of my mom's cookbooks last year. We all love pineapple so we gave it a go. Now it's a favorite. Easy to make, easy to eat, easy to put on some extra pounds if you consume too much!

Directions

For the cake:
Mix ingredients together by hand and pour into a greased 13x9 baking pan.

Bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes (cake may appear underdone because it is so moist).

Remove cake from oven and cool completely before adding the icing.

For the icing:
Beat the cream cheese and margarine or butter togehter. Add vanilla. Gradually add the powdered sugar, beating between each addition until smooth.

Spread on cooled cake. Refrigerate any leftovers or before serving if not serving until later.

Can fresh/frozen pineapple be used?

Kathleen, I've never used either. The thing that makes this cake so moist is the amount of pineaplle juice you have in canned pineapple, so I'd keep that in mind if substituting fresh or frozen pineapple.
