I had some canned crushed pineapple to use and tried this recipe, brought it to my MIL and some to my mom's for 4th of July and got so many compliments. I made it almost as directed except I added about 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon and almond flavoring to the batter and frosted it with a rum glaze (1 cup powdered sugar, 2T melted butter, 2T lemon juice and 1T rum). I poured the glaze over the cake while still warm but not hot. Thank you for the delicious recipe. Oh, maybe next time I think I will add a little coconut flakes to the batter too, yummy!

I must have done something really wrong... twice, that is why I am not rating this recipe. The only changes I made: I added 1 tea. coconut extract along with the 1 tea. vanilla, I added the 1/4 c. flaked coconut (as someone else had suggested and I made them as cupcakes. The texture was gross and spongy. I cannot figure out what went wrong, both times. Once I added the coconut, the other time I did not. really want to have a Pineapple Cupcake recipe... I love pineapple!! Thx.

This cake was WONDERFUL! I've been on a pinapple binge, and this really was perfect. I made half the cake recipe, but because I wanted a rather thick layer of frosting, I kept it the same. I also put half a cup of coconut in the frosting and then sprinkled the cake with more coconut. I also used pecans instead of walnuts. All these changes I would definitely do again, I think they added to the cake. Thank you for a delicious recipe!
