A “Juicy Pineapple Heaven Cake” sounds absolutely delicious! Here’s a recipe for a moist, juicy pineapple cake that’s easy to make and can feel like a tropical paradise in every bite:
Juicy Pineapple Heaven Cake
Ingredients:
- 1 box of yellow cake mix (you can use a low-carb or sugar-free cake mix if you prefer)
- 1 can (about 15 oz) crushed pineapple, undrained (the juice is key for moisture)
- 3 eggs
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil or melted butter
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Optional: 1/2 cup shredded coconut for added tropical flavor
For the Topping:
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream (for whipped cream topping)
- 1 tbsp powdered sugar (optional, for sweetness)
- A few maraschino cherries (optional, for garnish)
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Mix the batter: In a large bowl, combine the yellow cake mix, eggs, vegetable oil (or melted butter), vanilla extract, and the entire can of undrained crushed pineapple. Stir until everything is well combined. The juice from the pineapple will make the batter extra moist.
- Optional: Stir in shredded coconut for an extra tropical twist.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
- Bake for about 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Whip the cream: While the cake is cooling, whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar (if using) until soft peaks form. You can also add a splash of vanilla extract to the whipped cream if you like.
- Assemble: Once the cake has cooled for about 15-20 minutes, top it with the freshly whipped cream. Garnish with maraschino cherries if desired.
- Serve and Enjoy: Slice and dive into this juicy, fluffy heaven of a cake!
This cake is super moist thanks to the pineapple, and the whipped cream topping adds a nice richness. It’s like a tropical paradise in cake form!
