- Y'all know how much I love hearing
0:02
from all y'all out there.
0:04
And I really got behind in my correspondence
0:09
between movin' into my son's guest house, and COVID,
0:16
and trying to get our Dogwood house renovated.
0:22
You know, I just got kinda out of kilter.
0:25
So, I finally finished all my corresponding yesterday
0:30
that had been piling up on me.
0:32
So, if you hadn't heard from me,
0:34
it's because I've been in a...
0:38
What would you call what I've been in?
0:43
Not a funk.
0:46
I've been displaced, you know
0:49
- [Eddie] Pre-occupied.
0:50
- Well, I feel displaced, you know.
0:53
'Cause I can't remember where anything is,
0:55
but 98% of it is in storage.
0:58
So, (chuckles) anyway-
1:01
- [Eddie] At least we know were it all is.
1:01
- Yeah, we know what seven bins, rooms,
1:07
where everything is in those seven container rooms.
1:12
But I think it was just the other day.
1:14
I reminded everybody.
1:15
If you had a favorite recipe of your family's,
1:19
that you've been eatin' for years,
1:21
that your family loves, send it in.
1:24
And I would love to share it with everybody,
1:27
if you are willing to share it
1:29
and naturally give you the credit for it.
1:33
So, I just love the sound of this woman,
1:40
Elizabeth Van Winkle.
1:45
That's not a made-up name, you'd reckon, Eddie.
1:47
- [Eddie] No.
1:48
- Wasn't it Rip Van Winkle
1:50
Elizabeth, are you married to Rip?
1:53
(Paula laughs)
1:54
I bet she's so tired of hearing that old joke.
1:57
(Paula chuckles)
1:58
I never met anybody named Van Winkle besides Rip.
2:02
Well, she sent me a wonderful note, a lovely note.
2:06
And she sent me a recipe to share with y'all,
2:10
and it's called Speedy Pineapple Cake or
2:13
The Number Two Pineapple Cake.
2:15
And that would be because of the number two can
2:18
of pineapple.
2:20
So, she said, "You will not believe how easy this is.
2:25
You just mix all this stuff together, in a bowl
2:29
and put it in a 13 by nine by two dish
2:33
and bake it at 350 for 35 minutes."
2:41
But here's what she says,
2:43
"Note for Ms. Paula, Theresa and Eddie.
2:46
Throughout the quarantine, and to this day,
2:49
your 15 minute show on YouTube
2:52
has been a bright light in a dark world.
2:55
I love waking up and drinking my coffee
2:58
to Love and Best Dishes.
3:02
I thank Theresa and Eddie,
3:03
for all their support behind the scenes
3:06
and getting these vignettes out to Paula's friends.
3:10
Yes, a big thank you to these two from me, as well.
3:15
And of course, Ms. Paula for being her shining self."
3:18
Elizabeth, that is so sweet.
3:20
And when I hear things like that, that was our goal,
3:25
to have people that were quarantined
3:28
in an almost empty house,
3:31
to be able to come in and hopefully share some laughs
3:34
and some good recipes.
3:36
So, this one sounds incredible.
3:39
So, here we go.
3:41
The only thing, Elizabeth,
3:43
that I don't know if I'm gonna be able to do or not,
3:46
is you say, "Put this in an ungreased pan."
3:51
But yet, there's no butter in this recipe.
3:54
So, I'm just a little afraid it might...
3:58
(drawer opens)
4:00
All right now, where's my whisk?
4:03
Where'd my whisk go?
4:05
Who ate my whisk?
4:08
That's a big one.
4:09
- [Eddie] I see one, right there on the left.
4:10
- [Paula] Where is it?
4:13
Ah, that's my favorite one it's small and fits my hands.
4:17
So, there's no butter or anything in this.
4:19
So, I'm afraid it might stick,
4:22
but I'm gonna do just what you said.
4:24
Two cups of flour,
4:27
(bowl clanks)
4:28
and you see, I don't even have a mixer out y'all.
4:31
Two cups of sugar.
4:34
I'm just gonna take my whisk and whisk that together.
4:37
She said, "Just mix all the ingredients
4:41
and pour into an ungreased nine by 13 pan."
4:47
Okie doke, our two eggs,
4:52
our baking soda.
4:57
So, we just wanna whisk those eggs up a little bit
5:02
and then we're gonna add our 20 ounce can
5:04
of crushed pineapple.
5:06
Juice and all.
5:10
(ingredients squishing)
5:15
- I don't think you can get any easier than this.
5:18
Do you Eddie?
5:18
- [Eddie] Mm-mm.
5:20
(ingredients squishing)
5:23
- Look at that it's done.
5:26
- Now, I just gotta figure out
5:27
how to get that gunk out of the whisk.
5:34
I should not have put that back down in there
5:36
after I started adding my wet ingredients
5:40
I should've just used that strictly for the dry ones,
5:44
but I didn't.
5:45
Sometimes, I get ahead of myself.
5:52
(Water running)
5:54
So we got our oven pre-heatin' to 350,
6:01
This wooden spoon'll get it mixed up good.
6:06
(ingredients mixing)
6:11
Perfect, okay, so where is our dish?
6:18
Right here.
6:22
Okay, so (chuckles) to grease or not to grease?
6:30
Elizabeth-
6:31
- [Theresa] We have problems with things stickin'.
6:33
- Yes we do, but you know what?
6:35
I trust her.
6:38
So, I'm just gonna go for it.
6:39
- [Eddie] Maybe the pineapple adds extra moisture.
6:42
- [Paula] That's what I'm thinkin'.
6:43
Maybe that pineapple does somethin' crazy.
6:51
And if it sticks only me this time, then next time...
6:55
But, you know, I tell y'all, when you get a new recipe,
6:58
and somebody shares a recipe with you,
7:00
do it just like they say to do it.
7:06
And then if you wanna change something',
7:10
change it on that second round.
7:14
So, there we go, 35 minutes, 350 for...
7:18
Yeah, 35 minutes.
7:19
I think I said it.
7:21
So, Elizabeth,
7:25
can't wait to taste your quick and easy pineapple cake.
7:30
Elizabeth Van Winkle sent me a recipe,
7:33
that her family has made forever,
7:35
The Quick Pineapple Sheet Cake.
7:38
And now, I'm fixing to make the dressing,
7:40
I mean the frosting, (chuckles) this ain't no salad.
7:45
I'm fixing to make the frosting
7:46
to go on top of this quick pineapple cake.
7:52
So, I'm gonna start by beating up
7:55
one 8 oz package of softened cream cheese
8:03
and one stick of butter.
8:07
So, this is gonna be a really,
8:11
what can I say, a really intense cream cheese icing.
8:20
Because we're only adding one cup of powdered sugar.
8:24
Where normally, for an 8 oz stick of cream cheese,
8:32
you would use a one-pound bag,
8:35
which is like, three and half cups of powdered sugar.
8:38
So, like I said, it's gonna be a rich, intense flavor
8:42
with the cream cheese.
8:43
All right, so I'm just gonna set that to the side.
8:50
Uh-oh, I'm just gonna set that to the side y'all.
8:53
And when our cake comes out,
8:56
I'm gonna try to cool it rather quickly and-
9:04
- [Theresa] We'll be back.
9:05
- That is so good.
9:07
I mean, it's really intense.
9:10
You know, it reminds me of
9:16
like, those cream cheese rolls that you get, you know,
9:19
that have cream cheese in the center.
9:22
A cream cheese Danish.
9:24
- Yeah. - Yum.
9:25
(Paula laughs)
9:27
- That's what it reminds me of
9:28
because it's really cream cheesy.
9:32
Okie doke, so we'll get back together in,
9:37
not too long, maybe 30 minutes.
9:40
Elizabeth, I wanna go ahead and just speak for everybody,
9:48
thank you so much for sharing this easy recipe with us.
9:53
I mean, I've never thrown a cake together that quick.
9:57
And the icing looks just delicious.
10:00
Now, we have let the cake cool
10:05
and we're putting that wonderfully rich
10:10
cream cheese icing on it.
10:14
I'm just gonna spread that.
10:16
And the cake is still just a little bit warm underneath.
10:20
So, I'm gonna put this icing on it very quickly.
10:25
And then I'm gonna put it back in the refrigerator,
10:26
so it can finish cooling.
10:30
But not before I give it just a wee little taste.
10:33
(Paula chuckles)
10:35
Right gang?
10:36
- Yeah. - Uh-huh!
10:38
- [Paula] It's funny, if you wanna see Theresa,
10:41
just get to the end of a recipe.
10:44
(Paula laughs)
10:45
And you see where she's standing, Eddie?
10:47
(Theresa laughs)
10:48
- [Theresa] Especially the sweet ones.
10:49
- [Paula] You wanna show everybody else
10:50
where she' standing?
10:51
- [Eddie] She's standing behind me, after me,
10:53
after I get my bite.
10:54
- You can have your bite first, especially on the sweets.
10:58
- [Paula] That's where I can find her, yes.
11:00
'Cause she likes a sweet as good as I do.
11:05
(Michael speaks in background)
11:07
What Michael?
11:08
- [Theresa] He's bein' ugly.
11:11
- [Paula] Well-
11:11
- [Theresa] Yum, that looks good!
11:12
- [Paula] I mean, it looks so good!
11:14
- [Theresa] And it was so easy.
11:16
- [Paula] So easy!
11:18
I mean, when you don't have to use a mixer,
11:21
that is a bonus.
11:24
- [Theresa] And besides, probably crushed pineapple,
11:26
most of that would be in your pantry.
11:28
- [Paula] Yeah.
11:29
- [Theresa] So, if you just kept the fruit?
11:31
- [Paula] Yeah.
11:33
- [Theresa] Can, you'd be good to go.
11:35
- [Paula] You could probably open my pantry and find-
11:40
- [Theresa] Crushed-
11:41
- [Paula] Find some pineapple in there, yes.
11:43
'Cause you never know when you're gonna need
11:47
something like that.
11:51
So, what do you think Elizabeth?
11:54
Did I do you right, girl?
11:59
Beautiful, (chuckles) delicious!
12:04
(Paula laughs)
12:07
Poor Michael, I think he's mad.
12:11
- [Theresa] He can't have any cake.
12:13
- [Paula] Mm- hm, he can't have any cake.
12:15
(Paula and Theresa giggle)
12:18
(Michael sniffles)
12:19
Oh, he's crying y'all (chuckles).
12:26
All right, Theresa, there you go.
12:28
- [Theresa] Oh my gosh.
12:30
See, and I like it bein' just a teen-
12:32
Oh, it's not that warm.
12:35
- [Paula] Eddie.
12:39
- [Theresa] Oh, my God, this is good.
12:41
- [Paula] Is it good?
12:42
- [Theresa] It's so moist.
12:44
- Well, I'm fixin' to find out.
12:47
(Michael sniffles)
12:49
You've got to stop cryin' over there.
12:51
(Theresa laughs)
12:53
Show 'em what he's doin', Eddie.
12:55
(Michael sniffles)
12:56
- [Theresa] He's still crying (laughs).
12:59
- [Eddie] Well, that's self infliction there, so.
13:05
- [Theresa] The bomb, is this just not...
13:07
and it caramelizes.
13:12
- Thank you girl.
13:13
Thank you, Elizabeth Van Winkle.
13:17
This is...
13:19
Just cover your ears, Michael.
13:23
This is freaking out of this world.
13:25
That's all I can say.
13:26
- [Eddie] Yeah, great flavor.
13:28
- How'd it get so moist with no butter,
13:30
oil, or nothin'?
13:33
- [Eddie] It reminds me of that, on Steel Magnolias,
13:36
that cup a, cup a, cup a recipe that she talks about.
13:39
Cup of fruit cocktail, cup of sugar, cup of flour.
13:43
(Paula and Eddie laugh)
13:45
- Well- - That's amazing.
13:47
Thanks, thanks, thanks.
13:49
- Elizabeth, thank you.
13:50
You know, when somebody shares a recipe with me,
13:52
I'm always think, oh, well gosh.
13:54
Wouldn't some so and so, so, so, be good to it?
13:57
No, honey.
13:59
This one's perfect just the way it is.
14:02
So, thank you honey.
14:05
And you know what, it's not that sweet.
14:07
- [Theresa] No, it's good.
14:08
- It's not overpoweringly sweet.
14:12
And it didn't stick, y'all.
14:15
And I didn't spray it.
14:16
- [Theresa] She knows her thing.
14:17
She said that they've been making it for 60 years.
14:21
It's pretty tried and true.
14:26
- Thank you, honey.
14:27
That's all I got to say, ain't go no words.
14:30
But you are wonderful.
14:34
You is wonderful!
