Hawaiian Wedding Cake

What is Hawaiian Wedding Cake?
Hawaiian Wedding Cake is a basic cake mix cake with three layers on top – a crushed pineapple layer that seeps into the cake, a creamy pudding layer, and then whipped topping and coconut on top.  What I like about the topping on this Hawaiian Wedding Cake is it is not too sweet. It is flavorful and light.  It’s a nice change from heavy, sugary frosting.

Hawaiian Wedding Cake Recipe Tips
A couple of tips on making this Hawaiian Wedding Cake – first, when I use pudding and milk in a recipe, I always use 2% or whole milk (using skim milk or 1% milk will not thicken the pudding as well); and second, when using cream cheese in a recipe make sure it is softened.  If the cream cheese is not completely softened it will leave clumps in the pudding mixture.

INGREDIENTS (with Amazon Links)

• 1 yellow cake mix
• 15 oz crushed pineapple not drained
• 8 oz cream cheese softened
• 3 oz instant vanilla pudding mix
• 2 cups milk 2% or whole
• 12 oz whipped topping
• 1 cup sweetened coconut flakes

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Bake cake mix according to package directions in a 9x13 pan. Cool completely.
2. While cake is baking, mix cream cheese, pudding and milk together in a mixer or with electric beaters until blended well and thickened. Place pudding mixture in refrigerator. It will continue to thicken until cake is cooled.
