Description

This Pineapple Juice Cake is a moist and flavorful Bundt cake made from a simple cake mix combined with pineapple juice and topped with a rich pineapple glaze. It offers a tropical twist to classic yellow cake, perfect as a delightful dessert for any occasion.

Ingredients

Cake Batter

  • 1 (15.25-ounce) box yellow or butter cake mix
  • 3/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 3/4 cup pineapple juice
  • 4 large eggs

Glaze

  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 3/4 cup pineapple juice
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter

Instructions

  1. Preheat and prepare the pan: Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Grease and flour a 10 to 12-cup Bundt pan thoroughly to ensure the cake releases easily after baking.
  2. Mix the batter: In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat together the cake mix, vegetable oil, pineapple juice, and eggs. Continue mixing for about 2 minutes until the batter is smooth and well combined.
  3. Pour and bake: Pour the batter evenly into the prepared Bundt pan. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the cake starts to pull away from the sides of the pan.
  4. Start cooling the cake: Once baked, allow the cake to cool in the pan while you prepare the glaze, so it retains moisture and absorbs the glaze better.
  5. Prepare the glaze: In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, combine powdered sugar, pineapple juice, and butter. Stir frequently and cook until the butter has fully melted and the glaze is smooth.
  6. Poke holes and glaze the cake: Using a skewer or toothpick, poke holes all over the top of the cake directly in the pan. Slowly pour the warm glaze over the cake, ensuring it soaks into the holes for maximum flavor.
  7. Cool and serve: Let the cake cool for an additional 15 to 20 minutes in the pan or until most of the glaze is absorbed. Carefully invert the cake onto a serving platter and slice to serve.

Notes

  • Use a high-quality cake mix like Pillsbury for best results.
  • Make sure the glaze is warm to help it soak into the cake effectively.
  • You can substitute unsalted butter with salted butter but reduce added salt in the recipe accordingly.
  • This cake pairs well with whipped cream or fresh pineapple slices for an extra tropical touch.
