Ingredients
- 1 box yellow cake mix (15.25 oz)
- 4 large eggs
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup pineapple juice (from canned pineapple or bottled)
For the Glaze:
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 3/4 cup pineapple juice
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×13-inch baking pan.
- Mix the cake batter: In a large bowl, combine cake mix, eggs, oil, and pineapple juice. Beat with an electric mixer for 2 minutes until smooth.
- Bake: Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30–35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Make the glaze: In a small saucepan, combine powdered sugar, pineapple juice, and butter. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring until sugar is dissolved and butter is melted.
- Glaze the cake: While the cake is still warm, poke small holes all over the top with a fork or skewer, then pour the warm glaze evenly over the cake.
- Cool & serve: Let the cake cool completely before slicing.
If you want, I can also give you a version with crushed pineapple baked inside for extra texture and tropical flavor. That would make it even more moist and fruity.
