Orange - Pineapple Bundt Cake

I was looking at some cookbooks this lazy, rainy, gloomy day when I came across Mrs. Miller's Family Favorite Recipes.  She has many wonderful recipes in this book.  One of the recipes that caught my eye was one for Pineapple Bundt Cake.  Mm mm, it sounded really good but as usual I sat and thought how to make it mine.  Here is the  recipe.  Forgive me but there are no pictures as the cake stuck when I flipped it and turned into an orange-pineapple crummy bundt cake.

It still was eaten and whipped topping covered up the traces of the bundt Cake murder!

Here is my adaptation of Orange - Pineapple Bundt Cake.

Put in to the bowl of an electric mixer:  Mix well

2 sticks of butter, softened
1 1/2 cups white sugar
3 eggs
zest of one orange and then juiced ( I used a naval orange)
2 teaspoons orange extract
1 teaspoon baking soda

then add and mix with the above:

3 cups flour
1- 20oz. can crushed pineapple

Pour into a greased 10 inch bundt pan  bake 350 degrees for 55 minutes or when a toothpick comes out clean.

Make a glaze by mixing:
1 cup icing sugar
2 tablespoons milk 1 teaspoon orange extract

(I get lemon and orange oil and extract from Penzey's)
