This wonderful, tasty cake recipe was passed on to me by a very dear friend and has become a true family favorite. I have no idea why it is called Chop Suey Cake other than all of the ingredients are just dumped in the same bowl and mixed up. Who Knows?

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 c sugar
2 c flour
2 tsp baking soda
2 large eggs (slightly beaten)
1-19 oz can crushed pineapple c/w juice

Tips:

  • Choose finely chopped vegetables for a smooth texture in your Chop Suey Cake.
  • Use fresh bell peppers, water chestnuts, bamboo shoots, and carrots for a more authentic flavor.
  • For a vegetarian version, substitute vegetable broth for the chicken broth.
  • Add a teaspoon of soy sauce or oyster sauce for a savory umami flavor.
  • Don't overmix the batter; a few lumps are okay.
  • Bake the Chop Suey Cake in a preheated oven to ensure even cooking.
  • Let the cake cool slightly before inverting it onto a serving plate.
