PISTACHIO PINEAPPLE CAKE

I simply adore simple dessert recipes that begin with cake mixes. Making this pistachio cake is so easy that nobody would ever suspect that it begins with a package of instant pudding and a cake mix.

Ingredients for Pistachio and Pineapple Cake:

  1. One package (15.25 ounces) Mixture of yellow cake
  2. One box, weighing 3.4 ounces Pistachio pudding mix in a flash
  3. half a cup of vegetable or canola oil
  4. Three big eggs
  5. One can (20 ounces) pineapple chunks (do not drain)
  6. For the Frosting of Pistachio Pudding:
  7. Three-quarter cup of nonfat milk
  8. Half a cup of heavy cream
  9. One box, weighing 3.4 ounces Pistachio pudding mix in a flash
  10. Eight ounces Thawed Cool Whip
  11. Pistachios, chopped (optional) as a topping

Guidelines

  • Set oven temperature to 350°F. Apply cooking spray to a 9 x 13 baking pan.
  • Mix the cake mix, instant pudding mix, canola oil, eggs, and crushed pineapple (with juice) in a large mixing basin or the bowl of a stand mixer. Using a handheld mixer, mix on medium-high speed for approximately two minutes, or until thoroughly mixed.
  • Evenly distribute the batter after pouring it into the baking dish that has been ready.
  • A toothpick put into the center of the cake should come out clean after 35 to 40 minutes of baking.
  • On a cooling rack, let the cake cool fully.
  • Hold off on frosting the cake with pistachios until it has cooled fully. Combine the heavy cream and half-and-half milk in a mixing dish. Whisk in the until thoroughly blended, about one to two minutes, using the instant pistachio pudding mix. Give it a five-minute rest to thicken.
  • Add the thawed Cool Whip and stir until thoroughly combined. Use the pistachio pudding icing to cover the cake. Before serving, place a cover or piece of tin foil over the pan and refrigerate for four to six hours or overnight.
  • Note: Refrigerating the cake before serving is not necessary, although it is advised for optimal flavor and texture.
  • For an even more pleasant treat, the icing gets thicker and the cake absorbs all the flavorful goodness!
