Elvis Presley Cake (Jailhouse Rock Cake)


 

Elvis Presley Cake (Jailhouse Rock 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

Bake the Cake: 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.

Pineapple Mixture: In a saucepan, combine the crushed pineapple (with its juice), 1 cup of granulated sugar, and ½ teaspoon of vanilla

extract. 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.

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.

Garnish: Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of crushed pecans over the top of the cake.

Chill: 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.
