Butter Cake With Pineapple Whipped Cream Frosting

"My mom used to make this for my brothers' birthday cake every year. I don't know where she got the recipe, she just bought the ingredients and made the cake. I make it for my husbands' birthday now. There are so many ways to tweak this, such as adding coconut or well drained chopped mandarin oranges, but this is our favorite."

  1. Loved the pineapple frosting... light, creamy, not too sweet, and loads of pineapple flavor. I used fresh pineapple that I pureed in the blender. The frosting was absolutely awesome. Thanks for sharing:-)
