Ingredients
Cake Ingredients:
1 package angel food cake mix
1 package (3.4 ounces) instant pistachio pudding mix
½ c vegetable oil
3 large eggs
1 can (20 ounces) crushed pineapple, not drained
Frosting Ingredients:
1 container (8 ounces) whipped topping, thawed
⅔ c whole milk
1 package (3.4 ounces) instant pistachio pudding mix
Chopped pistachios, for garnish
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a baking dish measuring 9×13 inches.
Take a mixing bowl. Combine the angel food cake mix, pistachio pudding mix, vegetable oil, eggs and the entire can of crushed pineapple (including its juice). Mix these ingredients well until they are thoroughly combined.
Pour the batter into the greased baking dish. Smooth out the surface. Place it in the preheated oven. Allow it to bake for 30 to 35 minutes. To check if it’s done insert a toothpick, into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean then your cake is ready.
Once baked remove the cake from the oven. Allow it to cool down to room temperature.
While waiting for the cake to cool prepare your frosting. In a bowl thicken up your second pistachio pudding mix by adding milk. After that gently fold in thawed whipped topping until they are fully incorporated.
Spread a layer of frosting over your cooled cake. Once frosted place it in your refrigerator for around 2 hours to chill properly.
Before serving decorate your cake by sprinkling chopped pistachios on top.
Indulge, in the Pistachio Pineapple Cake. Savor every bite!
