20 ounces

Egg whites, room temperature

12
|
Flour, cake, sifted
|
1 ¼ cups
|
Sugar, granulated
|
¾ cup +
1 cup |
Cream of tartar
|
1 ½ teaspoon
|
Salt, fine
|
½ teaspoon
|
Vanilla extract
|
2 teaspoons
|
Sugar, powdered, sifted

2 cups

- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- Sift the flour and ¾ cup sugar together; lightly fold to combine.
- Beat the egg whites until foamy.
- Add the cream of tartar, salt, and vanilla, and beat until soft peaks form.
- Gradually add 1 cup sugar, and beat until stiff peaks form.
- Sprinkle flour-sugar mixture over the whites, and gently fold in.
- Fold in the drained pineapple.
- Pour the batter into an ungreased tube pan.
- Bake about 30 minutes, or until a cake test comes out clean.
- Invert the cake pan on a wire rack, and let set for 1 hour to cool.
- Run a spatula around the rim to release the cake; it will release very slowly (or tear if rushed).
- For the glaze, combine the powdered sugar and butter, and mix well.
- Add the pineapple juice, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the glaze is slightly runny.
- Spoon over the cake so that it drizzles down the sides.
