Cooking Instructions and Tips

Prep the Pineapple
1

a) Preheat your oven to 180°C/160°C fan/gas mark 4. Line two 8''/20cm round cake tins with baking paper.

b) Remove the pineapple rings from the tin (keep the tin and pineapple juice for later).

c) Drizzle one third of the salted caramel sauce into 1 of the cake tins, ensuring it covers the bottom of the tin fully. 

d) Place the pineapple rings in a single layer on top of the caramel

Make the Cake Mix
2

a) In a large bowl, combine the Betty Crocker cake mix, cinnamon the pineapple juice from the tin with the eggs, water and vegetable oil (see pantry for all three amounts). Gently stir until fully combined, 2-3 mins.

b) Divide the cake mixture between your lined cake tins and pop onto the middle shelf of your oven until risen and golden, 22-27 mins, or until a rounded knife inserted in the centre comes out clean. TIP: The cake with the pineapple rings in the bottom may take 5-10 mins longer.

c) Once baked, allow the cakes to cool completely before removing from the tins.

Assemble and Serve
3

a) While the cakes cool, combine in a medium bowl the cream cheese and half the remaining salted caramel sauce.

b) Once completely cooled, gently spread the salted caramel frosting over the top of the cake without the pineapple rings.

c) Stack the cake with the pineapple rings on top of salted caramel frosting, pineapple side facing upwards.

d) Drizzle over the remaining salted caramel sauce to finish.

Enjoy!
