Categories     Cakes and Cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 1/2 sticks (170g) unsalted butter, softened ( holds it shape but dents when pressed)
2 cups (400g) sugar
4 large eggs
3 cups (342g) cake flour (spooned into measuring cup and leveled off) If you do not have cake flour see substitution in Notes below.
2 teaspoons (8g) baking powder
1/2 teaspoon (3g) baking soda
1/2 teaspoon (3g) salt
1 1/4 cups (296g) buttermilk - if you do not have buttermilk, see substitution below
1/4 cup (54g) vegetable oil
1 Tablespoon (12g) vanilla extract
1 (20 oz) can crushed pineapple, DRAINED- This comes to about 1 1/2 cup drained pineapple.
Two 8 ounce (423g total weight) packages cream cheese, softened. It must be full fat, not reduced fat or cream cheese in a tub, those are too soft.
2 cups (230g) powdered sugar, measure then sift
2 teaspoons (8g) vanilla extract
3 cups (696g heavy whipping cream
2 cups of the reserved whipped cream cheese frosting
1 (8oz) can of pineapple, *drained*

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt for 30 seconds. Set aside
  • Drain the Crushed Pineapple- We used a strainer for this.
  • In another bowl, add the buttermilk, vegetable oil, drained crushed pineapple, and vanilla. Set aside.
  • In the bowl of your mixer, add the butter and mix at medium speed until smooth. Gradually add the sugar and continue to mix on medium speed for 3 to 5 minutes until lightened in color and fluffy.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, mixing after each addition until the yolks have blended in.
  • With the mixer on low speed, alternately add the flour mixture and buttermilk mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients (3 additions of dry ingredients and 2 of liquid). After the last addition, mix just until combined. Be careful not to over-mix.
  • Divide the batter between the three prepared 8 inch cake pans.
  • Bake at 325 degrees for 28-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with just few crumbs attached. Let cool 10 minutes and turn out.
  • Freeze your mixing bowl and beaters 15 minutes before whipping the cream (30 minutes if chilling in the refrigerator.
  • Use the whisk attachment for a stand mixer, beaters on your hand mixer. Beat the cream until stiff peaks form. This can happen very quickly so don't walk away from the mixer. You are at the stiff peak stage when you lift the beater and the cream stands straight up forming a peak. Keep in the refrigerator while completing the next step.
  • In another bowl combine the cream cheese, powdered sugar and vanilla. Beat until very smooth. Fold this into the whipped cream. Cover and refrigerate.
  • Reserve 2 cups of the frosting and set to the side to be combined with pineapple for the filling.
  • Drain the 8 oz can of Crushed Pineapple- We used a strainer. Save the juice as we will be brushing some of it over the cake layers later.
  • We took the two reserved cups of our Whipped Cream Cheese Frosting and combined with the drained, crushed pineapple (adjust amount to your liking). We spread this in between our cake layers as well as on top of the cake (within the top border).
  • Place the first cake layer on cake plate or pedestal. Brush over the top with reserved pineapple juice- I used a pastry brush for this.
  • Pipe a dam with frosting about 1/4-1/2 inch from the edge using a piping bag (or ziplock) with the tip snipped away. Fill within the dam with the pineapple whipped cream cheese filling.
  • Frost the outside of the cake with a thin layer of whipped cream cheese frosting. At this point I chilled the cake for about 15 minutes in the freezer to firm everything up. Then, I applied the second/final coat of frosting, texturing it with my offset spatula.
  • Decorate the cake however you like! I added the remaining pineapple filling to the top center of the cake and piped a large shell border around the top and bottom edge using a 1M piping tip.

Tips:

  • Use fresh pineapple: Fresh pineapple gives the cake a more intense flavor and a more moist texture. If you can't find fresh pineapple, you can use canned pineapple, but be sure to drain it well before using it.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make the cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This is the best way to ensure that the cake is cooked through.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help the frosting to set properly.

The moist and fluffy cake is topped with a creamy pineapple frosting that is sure to please everyone. With its tropical flavors and beautiful presentation, this cake is sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
