How to Make Pineapple Frosting

Pineapple frosting offers a change of pace from the usual vanilla and chocolate frosting. Fresh and fruity, it goes well atop a Mandarin Orange Cake,a simple white cake, a pound cake or a carrot cake that already has a touch of crushed pineapple in it. This is a near-instant frosting that does not require beating a pound of powdered sugar into it. It's a light frosting that will spread very easily, and is simple to make. Does this Spark an idea?

  • 2 medium bowls
