Ingredients
  

  • 1 white cake mix plus ingredients listed on the box
  • 1 can crushed pineapple
  • ½ cup butter
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 8 oz cream cheese
  • 3 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 cup pecans mostly crushed

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare the cake mix according to package directions.
  • Spray an 11×7-inch baking tray with nonstick cooking spray and pour the batter into the prepared pan.
    Bake according to the package directions or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Allow the cake to cool for 5 minutes. Using a wooden spoon, poke holes into the top of the cake, spacing them about ½ inch apart.
  • Pour the crushed pineapple over the cake, spreading it evenly. Let the cake cool completely.
  • In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, butter, and vanilla extract with an electric mixer until smooth. Add powdered sugar and mix again until creamy. Stir in the crushed pecans.
  • Spread the frosting over the cooled cake using an offset spatula. Top with additional pecans if desired. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
