Better than (insert word of your choice here) Cake


Better than (insert word of your choice here) Cake

1 white cake mix
1 (20 oz) can crushed pineapple (drained & juice set aside)
1 (8 oz) pkg cream cheese
1 (3 oz) pkg instant vanilla pudding
1 cup milk
Cool Whip

Cake:
Prepare cake mix using pineapple juice instead of water. If there is not enough juice, then add water to make up the difference. Bake cake according to package directions and let cool.

Frosting:
Mix cream cheese and milk together until smooth (for me it's still has little cream cheese lumps, I can't ever get it really smooth). Add (dry) pudding and mix. Fold pineapple into mixture. Spread on cake and top with cool whip.

I'm not really a cake person, but when the store is out of Rice Krispies and Cinnamon Red Hots to make my favorite birthday cake (Rice Krispie Treats), I had to make something else. I do love this cake and LOVE the frosting even more!
