Then repeat. (Make sure to reserve a handfull of wafer crumbs to sprinkle on top after last layer). Refrigerate 24 hours (This is a must)Top with whipped cream. Enjoy!
Tips:
- Use fresh pineapple. Fresh pineapple has a sweeter and more vibrant flavor than canned pineapple. If you can't find fresh pineapple, you can use canned pineapple, but be sure to drain it well and rinse it before using.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This usually takes about 30-35 minutes.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting to set properly.
- Use a cream cheese frosting. Cream cheese frosting is a classic pairing for pineapple cake. It's sweet, tangy, and creamy, and it complements the pineapple flavor perfectly.
