Pineapple I died and went to heaven cake!

This gets all mixed right into a 9 x 13 pan sprayed with pam or greased.
This is a sweet gooey cake and It does not come any simpler than this.

20 oz can crushed undrained pineapple
2 cups sugar
2 cups flour
2 eggs
2 teaspoons baking soda

mix bake 350 for 45 minutes. Now watch. Mine was almost done at 35 minutes but I did leave it in 5 more minutes. The cake rises nice but the center will sink as it cools. this is due to all the pineapple. Don't fret, the topping goes on this when it cools.

Topping when it cools:

Room Temp the ingredients should be. Mix all with mixer:

1 8 oz cream cheese
1 8 oz sweet butter (1 stick)
1 3/4 cup 10x sugar (confectioners)

When the cake is cool top with frosting. Keep refrigerated

I used to have this fairly often while I was in the Boy Scouts, we always called it dump cake and cooked it in a dutch oven.
While a lot of things can be cooked in those, this is one of the easiest, along with various cobblers.
