Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
-
In a medium bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
-
In a large bowl, cream together the softened unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk. Mix until just blended.
-
Fold in the crushed pineapple.
-
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans. Smooth the tops with a spatula.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Remove the cakes from the oven and let them cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Once the cakes are cooled, spread whipped cream on one cake layer. Place the second cake layer on top and frost the entire cake with whipped cream.
-
Garnish with maraschino cherries.
-
Chill the cake in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving.
