Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3.4 oz Instant vanilla pudding mix
- 20 oz Crushed pineapple in juice (undrained)
- 8 oz Whipped topping (thawed)
- 1 whole Angel food cake (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 cup Fresh strawberries (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a large bowl, whisk together the instant vanilla pudding mix and the entire can of crushed pineapple (including the juice) until well combined. Let the mixture sit for 2-3 minutes to thicken slightly.
Gently fold the whipped topping into the pudding-pineapple mixture until fully incorporated. This will create a light and fluffy pineapple cream.
Cut the angel food cake into three horizontal layers using a serrated knife. If the cake is too tall, you can trim the top to make it level before cutting the layers.
Place the bottom layer of the angel food cake on a serving platter. Spread about a third of the pineapple cream evenly over the layer.
Place the second layer of the cake on top, and spread another third of the pineapple cream evenly over this layer.
Place the top layer of the cake on and finish by spreading the remaining pineapple cream evenly over the top and sides of the cake for full coverage.
Refrigerate the cake for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld and for the dessert to set properly.
Before serving, garnish the cake with freshly sliced strawberries or other fresh fruit of your choice. Slice and serve chilled.
