Elvis Presley Sheet Cake

Ingredients :

• White Cake Mix
• 8 oz can Crushed Pineapple (with juice)
• 1 cup Granulated Sugar
• ½ tsp Vanilla Extract (for pineapple mixture)
• 8 oz package Cream Cheese, softened
• ½ cup Butter, softened
• 3 cups Powdered Sugar
• ½ tsp Vanilla Extract (for frosting)
• 3 cups Crushed Pecans

Instructions :

1. Prepare and bake a white cake according to package directions in your desired cake pan. Once baked, cool the cake and
   poke holes throughout with the end of a wooden spoon.
2. In a saucepan, combine the crushed pineapple (with its juice), 1 cup of granulated sugar, and ½ teaspoon of vanilla
   extract.
3. Bring to a boil for a few minutes, stirring occasionally. Pour the hot pineapple mixture over the cooled cake, ensuring it seeps into the
   holes.
4. Cream Cheese Frosting: In a large bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese and butter until smooth. Gradually add in the powdered
   sugar, remaining vanilla extract, and 2 cups of crushed pecans, mixing until well combined. Spread this frosting over the pineapple-soaked
   cake.
5. Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of crushed pecans over the top of the cake.
6. For the best flavor, let the cake set overnight in the refrigerator or at least for 6 hours before serving. This allows all the flavors to meld
   together beautifully.
