Time 55m

Yield 1 cake, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

cooking spray
1 (18 1/4 ounce) box butter recipe cake mix
1 package jell-o instant lemon pudding (4 serving size)
1 1/4 cups pineapple juice
1/2 cup butter, softened
3 eggs
1 1/2 cups sour cream
1 cup powdered sugar
1 1/4 cups pineapple soda

Steps:

  • Preheat over to 350°. Spray a fluted tube cake pan with nonstick cooking spray.
  • In a bowl, combine cake mix and 3 tablespoons of the dry instant pudding.
  • Add pineapple juice, butter, and eggs; beat with electric mixer on low speed for 30 seconds. Scrape bowl; beat on medium speed for 2 minutes more.
  • Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes or until wooden toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  • Cool the cake in the pan.
  • Make Icing by combining sour cream and the remaining dry instant pudding; beat with electric mixer on low speed until smooth.
  • Gradually add the powdered sugar; beat until smooth.
  • Remove cake from pan; place on plate.
  • Using a skewer, poke holes in the cake top. Slowly pour pineapple soda over holes (using more or less as desired).
  • Spread icing over cake.

Tips:

  • Use a toothpick or skewer to poke holes all over the cake before pouring the pineapple juice mixture. This will help the juice soak in and create a moist, flavorful cake.
  • Make sure to use crushed pineapple that is packed in its own juice. This will give the cake the best flavor and texture.
  • If you don't have a bundt pan, you can use a 9x13 inch baking pan. Just adjust the baking time accordingly.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting set properly.
  • If you want a thicker frosting, you can add more powdered sugar. If you want a thinner frosting, you can add more milk.
  • Garnish the cake with fresh pineapple slices, maraschino cherries, or chopped nuts before serving.

Conclusion:

Pineapple poke cake is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is a moist, flavorful cake that is topped with a creamy frosting. The pineapple juice mixture adds a sweet and tangy flavor to the cake, and the crushed pineapple adds a bit of texture. This cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
