There is something special about finding a cake that is not only simple, but turns out to be the yummiest cake ever.
The pineapple cake alone is to die for, but once you let that delicious icing drip through the whole cake…it’s a whole new story!
The thing is, I have a secret. But since it’s a secret, I can’t tell you what it is. Because then it would no longer be a secret. ?
But this little secret of mine, has been keeping me away from my laptop and this beloved blog of mine a lot more than I would like.

2 cups of sugar.
2 cups of flour.
