This cake has been a family favorite ever since my mom received the recipe from a neighbor. My husband's co-workers ask him to bring this cake for his birthday treat every year! —Teresa Marchese, New Berlin, Wisconsin

Yum-Yum Cake Recipe

Prep: 15 min. Bake: 20 min. + cooling

Yield: 12-16 Servings

15 20 35

Ingredients

1-1/2 cups cold milk
1 package (3.4 ounces) instant vanilla pudding mix
1 package white or yellow cake mix (regular size)
1-1/2 cups whipped topping
1 can (8 ounces) DOLE® Crushed Pineapple in 100% Pineapple Juice, well drained
1/4 cup flaked coconut, toasted

Directions

In a small bowl, whisk milk and pudding mix for 2 minutes. Let stand for 2 minutes or until soft-set; cover and refrigerate.
Grease the bottom of two 8-in. square baking dishes. Prepare cake batter according to package directions; pour into prepared dishes. Bake at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks to cool completely.
Fold whipped topping into pudding until blended. Level cake tops if necessary. Place one cake on a serving plate; spread with half of the pudding mixture. Top with pineapple, and the remaining cake and pudding mixture. Sprinkle with coconut. Store in the refrigerator. Yield: 12-16 servings.

This the best cake!! Its so light and delicious! I use butter recipe cake and I decreased the amount of cool whip so that the pudding flavor would be stronger. Its a must have!
