My nurse friend shared this recipe with me as it was a staff favorite, and it always used to brighten my day. Now I’m sharing it with you.
- Preheat Your Oven: Set the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9×13 inch baking pan or use parchment paper for easy removal.
- Mix the Batter: In a large bowl, combine cake mix, vanilla pudding, eggs, vegetable oil, and water. Beat until smooth.
- Add the Surprises: Fold in drained pineapple, sweetened coconut, and chopped nuts for a delightful surprise in every bite.
- Bake to Perfection: Pour the batter into the pan, smooth the top, and bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Infuse with Tangy Sweetness: While warm, poke holes and pour reserved pineapple juice over the cake for a moist, tangy sweetness.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the cake to cool on a wire rack, then cut it into squares for serving.
