"This very moist cake is my favorite recipe. Wherever I take it, I am always asked for the recipe."

Recipe

Cake:

• 2 eggs
• 1 and 1/2 cups sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 20-ounce can crushed pineapple,divided
• 2 and 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 and 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup finely chopped walnuts

Glaze:

• 1/3 cup evaporated milk
• 3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
• 1/2 cup butter or margarine

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Beat eggs with an electric mixer. Gradually add sugar and vanilla. Continue beating mixture until it is a lemon color. Change speed to low, and alternately add half the pineapple (undrained) and dry ingredients. Spread batter on a lightly greased 15-by-10-by-3/4-inch jelly roll pan. Sprinkle walnuts over top. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes or until top is golden brown. Pour remaining pineapple (slightly drained) over cake.

To prepare glaze, boil all ingredients 3 to 4 minutes until white and bubbly. Pour glaze over top while cake is still warm. Refrigerate for a few hours before serving. Serves 10 to 12.
