So simple and easy I hesitate to submit this recipe, but everyone loved it! Using pineapple in place of the usual oil and water called for on the package mix makes this cake much lower in fat and very moist! Substitute another flavoring, such as rum extract, for the orange extract if you like.

Time 45m

Yield 1 9x13inch sheet cake, 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

cake
1 (18 1/4 ounce) box spice cake mix (I used Betty Crocker)
20 ounces crushed pineapple (do not drain)
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon orange extract (optional)
2 -3 teaspoons orange extract
5 ounces powdered sugar
1 little water, if needed

Steps:

  • Note:*** Do NOT add the water and oil stated on the box of cake mix.
  • The Pineapple and juice replace these two ingredients and make it lower in fat and more moist.
  • In bowl, add dry cake mix, pineapple with juice, eggs and orange extract.
  • Beat just until mixed.
  • Pour into a 9x13-inch pan and bake at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
  • Cool.
  • Note: I wrapped outer edge of cake with Magi-cake strips which prevents the outside edges from becoming browned before the cake is done; however, this is optional.
  • Mix orange extract and powdered sugar to make a glaze.
  • Drizzle over the cooled cake.
  • Note:*** I have made this in 6 mini-angelfood cake pans and baked for 23 minutes.
  • They were the first cakes sold at the bake sale.

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

  • Rum cream: Put the vanilla bean and milk together in a saucepan, and bring to a simmer. Turn off the flame, and allow to steep for 10 minutes. Whisk the egg yolks and sugar in a bowl until sugar dissolves and mixture is a pale yellow. Stir in the hot milk and rum. Return the custard to the pan over low heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon until custard thickens slightly. Strain custard through a chinois. Chill over an ice bath to stop the cooking.

Bring to boil again. Follow this step one more time. After the last time, add the simple syrup to the strained ginger and bring to a simmer. Cook for half an hour. Strain the ginger and spread out on a plate to cool. Save the ginger infused syrup for another dessert.
  • Assembly: Cut cake into approximately 1-inch slices. Place one slice on a dessert plate and pour a desired amount of rum cream over the slice. Garnish with the candied ginger.
