But she put pecans in the cake and frosted it with homemade cream cheese icing. She called it a "Confederacy Cake" and said her mother had always insisted that it had been served at Jefferson Davis' inaugural dinner. Regardless, it is still our family's most called for dessert. I live in Michigan now, transplanted from Tennessee and South Your Mouth keeps me grounded to my roots. Thank you!

Maybe if you're using something smaller in diameter but deeper, the center can't get done. I've never cooked this longer than 30 minutes. If you do the "toothpick" test you may see a few bits sticking to the toothpick that are actually pineapple, not uncooked batter.

However, the cake itself always comes out a bit dry & hard. And I don't understand the reason for this mishap. The first time I followed the instruction exactly as written but the second time I stained the pineapple juice thinking this to be the reason for the prolonged baking time. But it still took about an hour to cook ( the center) and it still came out a hard. <br />HELP - any suggestions??Lola85https://www.blogger.com/profile/06135981647422768093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5848110156569017758.post-71189747427847973852018-02-18T07:45:59.444-05:002018-02-18T07:45:59.444-05:00Got mixed up on the frosting and put sweeten conde...Got mixed up on the frosting and put sweeten condensed milk in the frosting instead of evaporated milk.
