Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 store-bought or homemade Angel food cake
- 20 ounces Crushed pineapple
- 3.4 ounces Vanilla instant pudding mix
- 8 ounces Whipped topping (thawed)
- 1 cup, sliced Fresh strawberries
- 2 tablespoons Fresh mint leaves (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Drain the crushed pineapple thoroughly, reserving 1/3 cup of the juice for mixing.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the reserved pineapple juice and the vanilla instant pudding mix. Stir until the mixture is smooth and begins to thicken, about 2–3 minutes.
Fold in the thawed whipped topping until fully incorporated, creating a creamy and fluffy filling.
Gently fold the drained crushed pineapple into the creamy mixture.
Slice the angel food cake horizontally into three even layers using a serrated knife.
Place the bottom layer of the cake on a serving plate. Spread 1/3 of the pineapple mixture evenly across the layer.
Repeat the layering process with the second and top layers of cake, spreading the remaining pineapple mixture on top and around the sides (optional).
Cover the cake and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld and the filling to set.
Before serving, garnish the cake with sliced fresh strawberries and optional mint leaves for a pop of color and freshness.
Slice, serve, and enjoy this light and fruity Angel Lush Cake!
