PINEAPPLE CHIFFON CAKE
Make sure to drain the pineapple very well, I drain in a small-holed strainer and push the crushed pineapple down in the strainer with a large spoon over a small bowl, to make sure it is well drained, If desired add in 1-2 teaspoons of vanilla extract into the egg yolk/oil batter, and a few drops of yellow food coloring may be added to the whipped cream just for a little color

Steps:
- Set oven to 350 degrees.
- Prepare an ungreased tube pan.
- In a bowl, sift together flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
- Make a well in the center of the flour mixture; add in oil, egg yolks, and the 3/4 cups pineapple juice; beat with a wire whisk until smooth.
- In a large mixing bowl,, beat the egg whites and the cream of tartar together until very stiff peaks form (DO NOT UNDER BEAT!).
- Pour egg yolk/oil batter over the egg whites; gently fold the egg whites making sure it is well blended from the bottom of the bowl (I use a large spatula for this).
- Pour the batter in tube pan.
- Bake for 60 minutes, or until cake springs back when touched.
- Invert/turn over and cool (I use a long-neck bottle, a beer bottle will do fine to invert the pan on).
- Run a knife along sides of cooled cake, and remove from pan.
- Split into two layers.
- Fill and frost with pineapple filling/topping (make sure that cake is completely cooled before frosting and filling.
- To make the pineapple topping/filling: whip the 2-3 cups of whipped cream add in the amount of sugar that you desire.
- Fold in the very well drained crushed pieapple.
- Use to fill and frost cake.
- Refrigerate any leftover cake, but you won't have to worry, there won't be any leftovers LOL!
- Delicious!
