I am such a slacker! Last month after Eva's blessing, we had a little picnic with family and friends at the park. My mother in law brought Aloha cake and everyone was asking for the recipe. It's just taken me a month to post it to the blog, sorry! But here it is, enjoy!
1 pkg. yellow cake mix with pudding in the mix
Filling:
1 8 oz. pkg. cream cheese, softened
1 Large (6 oz.)pkg. vanilla instant pudding
3 cups milk
Topping:
1 20 oz. can CRUSHED pineapple, drained very well
1 12 oz. carton Cool Whip
2 to 3 cups shredded coconut
Make cake mix as directed on package and bake in sheet cake pan (11x17) or 2 9x13 pans. bake only about 20 to 25 minutes. Cool. Beat softened cream cheese. Mix instant pudding and milk, add to cream cheese. Mix until smooth and pour over cooled cake. Sprinkle crushed pineapple (that has been thoroughly drained) over pudding mixture. Spread Cool Whip over cake. Spinkle coconut over Cool Whip. Refrigerate.
LOWER CALORIE VERSION:
Use low fat (non fat) cream cheese, lite Cool Whip and sugar free pudding-I promise it's just as good!!!
