Pineapple Nut Cake

My friend from Park Street Middle School in Grove City gave me this recipe. It actually gets better a day or two after baking! A dense, old –fashioned dessert.

2 cups sugar
2 cups flour
2 tsp. baking soda
1 cup chopped nuts
1 20 oz. chopped pineapple, not drained
2 eggs, slightly beaten
1 tsp. vanilla
Mix all together until well blended. Pour into greased 9 x 13 pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 35-40 minutes. Frost when cool. Keep covered in the refrigerator.

Frosting:
1 8 oz. pkg. cream cheese
1 stick margarine
1 1/3 cup powdered sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
