Put the rest of the icing on top of cake and make big swirls for a nice finish. Take sweetened shredded coconut and immediately put around the sides and on top of cake before the icing dries. Enjoy!

Categories     Desserts     Fruit Dessert Recipes     Pineapple Dessert Recipes

Time 1h30m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup white sugar
½ cup unsalted butter, softened
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons clear vanilla extract
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 ¾ teaspoons baking powder
½ cup coconut milk
¾ cup crushed pineapple with juice
2 tablespoons cornstarch
3 ¾ cups confectioners' sugar
¾ cup shortening
1 teaspoon clear vanilla extract
⅓ cup coconut milk, or as needed
1 ½ cups flaked coconut, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9-inch square pan.
  • Cream butter and sugar together in a large bowl. Beat in eggs, one at a time; stir in vanilla extract.
  • Combine flour and baking powder in a separate bowl; add to the creamed mixture and mix well. Mix in the coconut milk until batter is smooth. Scrape into the prepared pan and smooth the top flat.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the top springs back when lightly touched, 30 to 40 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Run a table knife around the edges to loosen. Invert carefully onto a cooling rack. Let cool, about 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine crushed pineapple, juice, and cornstarch in a saucepan. Whisk until cornstarch is smooth. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until filling has thickened and just barely starts to boil. Remove and set aside to cool.
  • Cream confectioners' sugar and shortening together in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Beat in vanilla extract. Gradually add coconut milk, beating until smooth; you may need to use more or less milk depending on the desired thickness of the icing.
  • Cut the cooled cake in half to form two 4 1/2x9-inch pieces. Spread pineapple filling on top of one half. Place the other half, top-side down, on top of the filling. Frost the sides and top with icing, then sprinkle coconut all over icing, pressing gently so it sticks.

PINEAPPLE FILLING: BASIC PIE FILLING POSTED IN JAP (HALF RECIPE) USING CAN OF CRUSHED PINEAPPLE

Steps:

  • 1. Allow egg whites to stand at room temperature for 30 minutes (reserve yolks for another use). Prepare the pineapple filling and store in the refrigerator while preparing the cake. Grease three 8x1 1/2-inch round cake pans. Line bottoms of pans with parchment paper. Grease parchment paper only and lightly flour pans; set aside. In medium bowl stir together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and 3/4 teaspoon salt; set aside.
  • 2. Preheat over to 350 degrees. In large mixing bowl beat butter with electric mixer on medium to high for 30 seconds. Add sugar and vanilla; beat until well combined. Add egg whites all at once; beat on medium-high 3 minutes. Alternately add flour mixture and buttermilk/nectar combined to butter mixture, beating on low after each addition just until combined. Divide batter among prepared pans. (If you do not have 3 pans, refrigerate remaining batter until ready to use.)
  • 3. Bake in preheated oven 30 to 35 minutes or until a wooden toothpick inserted near centers comes out clean. Cool cakes in pans on wire racks 10 minutes. Remove layers from pans. Cool thoroughly on racks.
  • 4. *Prepare Vanilla Sour Cream Frosting. Set in refrigerator while cake cools. If you are not using the pineapple filling then double the frosting recipe, which makes plentiful frosting. I found the sugar to be too much and suggest you use only 6 cups (for the doubling) of powdered sugar and cool the frosting before icing the cake for consistency to frost.
  • 5. Add pineapple filling between the layers as your stacking the cake. Frost with Vanilla Sour Cream Forsting or your favorite icing. Store, covered, in refrigerator.

PINEAPPLE CAKE FILLING



Pineapple Cake Filling image

Categories     Cake     Dessert     Pineapple     Vegan     Boil

Yield makes 1 quart

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 (20-ounce) can unsweetened crushed pineapple packed in its own juice
3/4 cup water
3 tablespoons light agave nectar
1 tablespoon arrowroot powder dissolved in 2 tablespoons cold water

Steps:

  • Bring the pineapple (including the juice), the water, and agave nectar to a boil in a small saucepan. Stir in the arrowroot powder slurry. Stir and cook until the mixture starts to thicken (this happens quickly). Cool to room temperature, then refrigerate before filling the cake. Store for up to 1 week in the refrigerator.

Tips:

  • When choosing pineapple for your filling, opt for ripe, sweet pineapples. Fresh pineapple is ideal, but you can also use canned pineapple in a pinch. Just be sure to drain it well and rinse it off before using.
  • To make your filling extra smooth, strain it through a fine-mesh sieve before using. This will remove any unwanted bits of pineapple or sugar crystals.
  • If you want a thicker filling, cook it over medium heat for a longer period of time. Keep in mind that the filling will continue to thicken as it cools.
  • For a more flavorful filling, add a touch of spice, such as ground cinnamon or ginger. You can also add a splash of lemon juice or orange zest for a bit of brightness.
  • Use your pineapple filling to make a variety of delicious treats, such as pies, cakes, cookies, and tarts. It's also a great addition to ice cream, yogurt, and oatmeal.

Conclusion:

Pineapple filling is a versatile and delicious ingredient that can be used in a variety of desserts. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Whether you prefer a smooth, creamy filling or a chunky, textured filling, there's a pineapple filling recipe out there for you.
