Hawaiian Wedding Cake with Whipped Cream-Cream Cheese Frosting

For the cake you will need:

1 cup white sugar

1/2 cup brown sugar

1 tsp baking soda

2 cups all-purpose flour

2 eggs

1 (20 ounce) can crushed pineapple with juice

1 cup finely chopped (or crushed) walnuts

3/4 cup flaked coconut

1 tsp cinnamon

1/8 tsp nutmeg

1 tsp salt

1 tsp vanilla

Mix all of your dry ingredients together in a bowl.

Then mix in the eggs, vanilla and crushed pineapple with all of the juice.

Pour into a well greased pan 9″ round or 9″X13″ rectangle

Bake for about 35 – 40 minutes at 350 degrees (or until toothpick in the center comes out clean). You can serve it this way if you want…or you can kick it up a notch with a simple creamy whipped cream-cream cheese frosting!

For Whipped Cream Cream Cheese Frosting you will need

1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese (let it come to room temperature for easier blending)

1 cup white sugar

1/8 tsp salt

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream

In a small bowl beat whipping cream until stiff peaks form; set aside.In a large bowl combine cream cheese, sugar, salt and vanilla. Beat until smooth.

Gently fold the cream cheese mixture and whipped cream together.

I topped mine with a little toasted coconut.
