I love the flavors of peanut butter and banana together, and this slow-cooker pudding cake is just like eating an Elvis sandwich, only sweeter! Banana chips add a surprisingly crunchy texture; find them near the dried fruit in your grocery store. -Lisa Renshaw, Kansas City, Missouri

ELVIS PRESLEY CAKE

I saw lots of different cakes called Elvis Presley Cake, some with white cake, some with chocolate cake and a few with yellow cake mix. This version is a little different than all the others in that it adds pudding mix to the batter so the cake layer is extra moist. None of the other recipes gave any sort of explanation as to...

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 box white cake mix
3.4 oz vanilla pudding mix (cook-and-serve type, not instant)
4 large eggs
1 cup milk
1/2 c melted butter (or vegetable oil)
20 oz can crushed pineapple in juice (don't drain)
1 cup granulated sugar
8 oz package cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened (not melted)
2 c confectioners sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
2-3 cups chopped pecans

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter or spray a 9x13-inch baking pan; set aside.
  • 2. With electric mixer, mix together the cake mix, pudding mix, eggs, milk and butter until smooth, it should take about 3 minutes). Pour cake batter into prepared baking pan, and bake for 30 to 40 minutes or until knife inserted in center comes out clean.
  • 3. While cake is baking, combine pineapple and sugar in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil and stir until sugar is dissolved. Let pineapple mixture cool while cake finishes baking.
  • 4. When cake is baked, remove it from the oven and let cool 15 to 20 minutes. Once cake is cooled, use a fork to poke holes in several spots on the cake top. (If you poke the cake while it's still hot, the cake top will crumble and tear apart.)
  • 5. Spoon pineapple mixture over cooled cake, and let stand several minutes to soak into the cake.
  • 6. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and cream cheese until smooth. Add powdered sugar and vanilla, and beat until smooth.
  • 7. Place dollops of the frosting in several spots over the pineapple layer. Use a spatula to gently spread the frosting in an even layer, being careful not to incorporate the pineapple into the frosting.
  • 8. Sprinkle chopped pecans on top. Cut the cake into 20 or 24 slices, and serve. NOTE: The cake will be OK if left out for up 8 hours. But after that, it needs to be covered with plastic wrap and refrigerated, and it will keep well for up to 5 days in the fridge.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your cake will be.
  • Do not overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that the cake is cooked through.
  • Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting it: This will help the frosting to set properly.
  • Be generous with the frosting: Elvis loved his desserts rich and decadent, so don't be afraid to use a lot of frosting.

Conclusion:

Elvis Presley's favorite dessert, Elvis Pudding Cake, is a delicious and decadent treat that is perfect for any occasion. With its moist banana cake, creamy peanut butter pudding, and rich chocolate frosting, this cake is sure to satisfy even the most discerning sweet tooth.
