For an extra burst of flavor, try using pineapple juice instead of water in the cake batter. Lemon Jell-O offers a delightful twist to the classic pineapple flavor. Garnish with maraschino cherries or toasted coconut flakes before serving for an elegant presentation.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. (5 minutes)
02
StepIn a mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, 1 1/4 cups water, vegetable oil, and egg whites. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until well combined, about 2 minutes. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish. (5 minutes)
03
StepBake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, approximately 23-28 minutes. Let the cake cool for 15 minutes. (45 minutes)
04
StepIn a separate bowl, dissolve the pineapple-flavored gelatin mix in 1 cup of boiling water. Stir until the gelatin is completely dissolved. Add 3/4 cup of cold water and stir to combine. (5 minutes)
05
StepUsing a skewer or straw, poke holes evenly across the surface of the cooled cake. Slowly spoon the gelatin mixture over the cake, ensuring it seeps into the holes. (10 minutes)
06
StepRefrigerate the cake for at least 4 hours to allow the gelatin to set completely. (4 hours)
07
StepIn another bowl, combine the drained crushed pineapple and instant vanilla pudding mix. Gently fold in the thawed whipped topping until well combined. (5 minutes)
08
StepSpread the pineapple-pudding mixture evenly over the chilled cake. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours more to allow the topping to set. (2 hours)
