Ingredients:

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 3 cups granulated sugar
  • 6 large eggs
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup crushed pineapple, drained

Directions:

  1. Preheat Oven: Set the oven to 325°F (163°C). Grease and flour a bundt pan to ensure easy removal after baking.
  2. Mix Butter and Cream Cheese: In a large bowl, whisk together softened butter and cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
  3. Add Sugar: Gradually mix in the sugar until the mixture becomes light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  4. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually fold the dry mixture into the wet ingredients until just combined.
  5. Add Flavor: Stir in vanilla extract. Gently fold in the drained crushed pineapple until evenly distributed.
  6. Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan. Smooth the top and bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  7. Cool: Let the cake cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before glazing.

Pineapple Cream Cheese Glaze Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2-3 tablespoons pineapple juice (from the drained pineapple or fresh juice)
  • 1-2 tablespoons cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Glaze: In a mixing bowl, combine powdered sugar and softened cream cheese. Gradually add pineapple juice and vanilla extract (if using), whisking until smooth. If the glaze is too thick, add more pineapple juice. If it’s too thin, add more powdered sugar to thicken.
  2. Glaze the Cake: Once the pound cake has cooled, place it on a wire rack over a baking sheet to catch drips. Pour or drizzle the glaze over the cake, allowing it to naturally drip down the sides.
  3. Set the Glaze: Let the glaze set for 15-20 minutes before slicing and serving.
