Steps:
- Pre-heat oven to 325 F. Follow the directions on cake mix using pineapple juice instead of water. If not enough liquid from the can of crushed pineapple to make the required amount of water needed, add juice from a small I can of pineapple juice. Grease a jelly roll pan (about 13"x18"x1"). Pour mix into pan and spread evenly. Let set on counter for about 5 minutes before baking. This allows the cake to rise higher. Bake for 20 to 25 minute or until tester comes out clean when poked into the center of the cake. Cool in the refrigerator when cake is finished baking. Next, combine milk and the instant pudding and beat until thick. In a medium bowl, soften cream cheese. Add pudding a little at a time to the cream cheese and blend until smooth. Spread evenly over cooled cake. Sprinkle crushed pineapple and coconut over the cake. Then spread on a layer of cool whip. Cut into slices and serve.
Tips:
- Choose ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your Aloha cake will be.
- Use a stand mixer or hand mixer to cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy: This will help to incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a lighter, more tender cake.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition: This will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk: This will help to prevent the batter from becoming too thick.
- Do not overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake.
- Bake the cake in a preheated oven: This will help to ensure that the cake bakes evenly.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
Conclusion:
Aloha cake is a delicious and easy-to-make cake that is perfect for any occasion. With its moist, tender crumb and sweet, tropical flavor, it is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you are looking for a special cake to make, give Aloha cake a try. You won't be disappointed!
