Ingredients

1 pkg yellow cake mix
20 oz can crushed pineapple, drained & juice reserved
8 oz pkg cream cheese
3 oz pkg vanilla pudding
1 c cold milk
9 oz container cool whip
nuts & coconut

Steps:

1. Prepare cake mix according to package directions, using the reserved pineapple juice and water for the liquid called for in the directions.
2. Bake at 350° F. for about 35 minutes in a greased and floured 15 x 10 x 1 inch jelly roll (I used a 9-/12 x 13 pan).
3. Cool in pan, set aside.
4. In a large bowl blend together cream cheese, pudding mix and milk until smooth. Fold in drained pineapple and spread over top of cake.
5. Cover with whipped topping and sprinkle with nuts and coconut. Refrigerate.

Tips:

Ensure Accurate Measurements: Use measuring cups and spoons to ensure precise ingredient quantities for a successful cake.
Creaming Butter and Sugar: Cream butter and sugar together until light and fluffy for a smooth and well-blended batter.
Gradual Addition of Ingredients: Gradually add eggs and dry ingredients to the batter, alternating between them, to prevent curdling.
Properly Fold in Egg Whites: Gently fold in whipped egg whites into the batter using a spatula, maintaining airiness and preventing deflation.
Use Room Temperature Ingredients: Bring ingredients like butter and eggs to room temperature before baking for even blending and a smooth batter.
Avoid Overmixing: Mix the batter only until combined to prevent gluten development and a tough cake.
Proper Oven Temperature: Preheat the oven to the correct temperature and bake the cake according to the recipe to ensure proper doneness.
Toothpick Test: Insert a toothpick into the center of the cake; if it comes out clean, the cake is done baking.
Cooling and Frosting: Let the cake cool completely before frosting to prevent the frosting from melting and to ensure a smooth and even application.
