All-purpose Flour: 2 cups

4. In a large bowl, beat in the egg yolks and sugar at high speed until the mixer turns to a pale yellow color. Stir in the vanilla extract (if you are using the extract).
5. Add the vegetable oil, pineapple juice or water, pineapple extract and mix well. Then gently mix in flour mixture with a spatula. You can add about 1/2 cup diced pineapple to the mixture.
6. Beat the egg whites until stiff peaks are formed. (The electric beater should be clean and dry)
