Yesterday, since I was home in the afternoon, I decided to try a new recipe the I had saved on Pinterest. It is called an Elvis Presley Cake and it used crushed pineapple which my whole family likes.
Elvis Presley Cake
Ingredients
- White cake mix
- 8 oz. can of crushed pineapple
- 1 cup of sugar
- 8 oz. pkg of cream cheese
- 1/2 cup of butter softened
- 3 cups of powder sugar
- 1 tsp of vanilla
- 2 – 3 cups of crushed pecans
Bake the cake as directed on the box, let it cool and poke holes in it. I used the small round handle of a mixing spoon.
Boil the can of crushed pineapple with the juice and one cup of sugar. Pour over the cake.
In a large bowl mix cream cheese, butter, and powdered sugar. 
Add vanilla and crushed pecans and mix well. Spread over cake.
This is a very good cake, but it is rich and super sweet.
Bon appetite!
