Anyone who loves pineapple asks for this recipe. This cake always turns out moist. If you don't care for cream cheese, you could use buttercream frosting.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

I'm on a mission to declare fruitcake a fruit... That way I won't feel as guilty when I eat this every day of the week! Sweet and satisfying, this is one of the most perfectly moist cakes I've ever made.
