I just love sheet cakes. They are usually no fuss recipes to put together and there is no need to decorate them pretty.
They are simple, but delicious. They are almost always moist and there is no concern about whether they will tip out of the pan in one piece.

This sheet cake recipe is no different. The better comes together in just a couple of minutes.
It bakes in a 10×15-inch sheet pan or jelly roll pan, making it perfect for serving about 16 people. If you need to, you can bake it in a 9×13-inch pan, but it will take a few more minutes to cook through.
Once it is cooled, slather it with cream cheese frosting. The tangy cream cheese goes so well with the bits of pineapple.
It really is a great summer treat. You’ll have to bake one to see for yourself.
