Pineapple Dream Cake AKA Daffodil Cake image

This cake was MY birthday cake for many years & was made by my best friend, and later sister-in-law, Becki. Oh, the barbecues & lasagna dinners that were topped off by this delicious dessert! Talk about happy memories, even if the event meant I was getting older. =^..^=

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 box yellow cake mix, any brand
1 c water, as directed for the cake
1/2 c vegetable oil, as directed for the cake
3 eggs, as directed for the cake
20 oz can of crushed pineapple, drained
8 oz block of cream cheese
1 box instant vanilla pudding mix, 4 serving size
2 c milk
8 oz container of cool whip

Steps:

  • 1. Mix the cake mix, water, oil, and eggs together, as directed on the cake mix box. Bake the cake in a 13 x 9" baking dish, using the temperature & time suggested on the cake mix box. Remove from oven and cool.
  • 2. Drain the pineapple well. (I actually squish it with a wooden spoon, just a little, so the cake won't get soggy.)
  • 3. Spread drained pinepple over the cooled cake.
  • 4. In a blender (or using a bowl & mixer), mix together the cream cheese, pudding mix, and milk until well-blended. Pour over the pineapple on the cake...
  • 5. ...and smooth the pudding evenly over the cake.
  • 6. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes until the pudding is set. Then frost with Cool Whip.
  • 7. Refrigerate again until ready to serve. (If there are any leftovers, refrigerate them, too.) I wish this photo showed the whole slice of cake. Silly JAP editing! =^..^=

I was disappointed with this cake. The cake itself was dry and bland, and the cream cheese frosting was too sweet. I would not recommend this recipe.

This cake is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less sugar in the cake batter and the cream cheese frosting.
