For an even more intense pineapple flavor, consider using pineapple-flavored cake mix. Toast the pecans before chopping to enhance their nutty flavor. If you're short on time, you can use two 9-inch round pans instead of three 8-inch pans, but adjust baking time accordingly. Store the frosted cake in the refrigerator to maintain its moisture and prevent the frosting from melting.

Jun 27, 2024The cake was a little too sweet for my taste, so I reduced the amount of confectioners' sugar in the frosting by 1/2 cup, and it was perfect!
