My Cake Won 2nd Prize

I made a Better Than Sex cake and it won 2nd prize in a bake off. Brownies won first prize. I'd love to taste any brownie that wins 1st prize over other desserts!

Yep, just keep layering it on. The layers are pretty thin and I left time for it all to settle. If you want to put a cover over it without ruining the top layer, I'd transfer the cake to a larger pan before layering everything over it.

I make this cake all the time. No, dont drain the pineapple. As for the pan, most of the time I am bringing this cake somewhere so I use a baking tin. it is the perfect size.
