When it comes to basic dessert recipes, it doesn’t get any easier than this! This Angel Pineapple Cake requires only three main ingredients and takes only a few minutes to prepare. One of my favorite features is the ability to keep the materials on hand at all times. Cake mix and canned pineapple? Shelf stable! And our home always has at least one tub of Cool Whip in the freezer!

Voilà, a handcrafted dessert at a moment’s notice. While the recipe is quite basic, there are a few secrets for achieving excellent results. First, use a *large* mixing basin. The batter will almost double in size, and you do not want a mess on your hands! The second point is to avoid undercooking the cake. You want to make sure the center is finished so it does not fall.

The best approach to check this is to use a few toothpick inserts and ensure that they come out clean.Finish with a coating of cool whip and coconut for a delicious dessert. No one needs to know how easy it was to put together. Until they ask for the recipe, which is highly likely. People adore this dessert!
