Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350ðF (175ðC). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.

  3. Mix all ingredients together until well combined and smooth.
  4. Pour the batter into the prepared 9x13 inch pan.
  5. Bake at 350ðF (177ðC) for 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  6. Allow the cake to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
  7. While the cake cools, prepare the topping. In a medium bowl, combine the crushed pineapple with its juice and the instant vanilla pudding mix.
  8. Stir the pineapple and pudding mixture together thoroughly until well blended.
  9. Gently fold in the Cool Whip until evenly distributed and no white streaks remain.
  10. Spread the creamy pineapple topping evenly over the cooled cake.
  11. Refrigerate the cake for at least one hour before slicing and serving to allow the topping to set.
