Pineapple Poke Cake with Pineapple Glaze
"This is the moistest, softest, juiciest cake I've ever made because of the sweet pineapple juice glaze that soaks in. It's a fast, easy, one-bowl, no mixer, from-scratch recipe and the cake is just screaming with over-the-top pineapple flavor from crushed pineapple inside the cake and the glaze is made with pineapple juice. Rather than just pouring the glaze over the top, first poke the cake in about 25 spots and the longer you can let the glaze soak, the better. This is one of the best cakes I've ever made and definitely very sweet from all the wonderful pineapple...."
