📣 A slice of tropical bliss perfect for your next family gathering or just to sweeten up your day!

🍽️ Ingredients 🍽️
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup crushed pineapple, drained
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 2 tbsp pineapple juice
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp salt

🧑‍🍳 Directions 🧑‍🍳
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a loaf pan to get ready for the batter.
2. Sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl.
3. In a separate large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar using an electric mixer until the mixture is light and fluffy.
4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is well incorporated before adding the next. Mix in the vanilla extract.
5. Gradually add the flour mixture to the creamed mixture, alternating with sour cream, starting and ending with the flour mixture. Stir just until combined.
6. Gently fold in the drained crushed pineapple.
7. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing out the top to ensure an even bake.
8. Bake in the preheated oven for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
9. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
10. For the glaze, whisk together powdered sugar and pineapple juice in a small bowl until smooth. Drizzle over the cooled cake for a touch of sweetness.
