I made this easy dessert for a dinner with my parents and inlaws. It was a big hit! The recipe is so easy (I usually "bake it from scratch"). I was a bit embarassed when my mom-in-law asked for the recipe (ha,ha). I used dream whip instead of cool whip, only because it was what I had on hand.

I made this in a 9x13 pan. It turned out good. It was easy to make. But I'll probably move on to trying other recipes and not make this again.

I have to make this at every party! The only addition is I also sprinkle with flaked coconut! Always a hit! GREAT Recipe!

We enjoyed this cake tonight. I didn't have a jelly roll pan so I used a 13x9. After it cooled I cut it lengthwise and put the pudding/cream cheese mixture in the middle. Then I put the pineapple on the pudding. I replaced the top of the cake and frosted it with cool whip. I added crushed pecans on top. If it's better tomorrow as one reviewer said, I can't wait!

This really wasn't anything special. It just tasted like a yellow cake with a bunch of cool whip. The cake itself really needed something... maybe pineapple in the batter? I used pineapple juice instead of the water called for in the cake recipes, but it was still bland. I'd make again, but definitely with changes.

I used banana pudding instead of vanilla, and chopped walnuts sprinkled on top. It was a hit!

Versatile and quick. I used what I had on hand--cheesecake flavored pudding mix, fresh pineapple with a little brown sugar mixed in, and french vanilla cake mix using pineapple juice, Meyers dark rum, and a little coconut flavoring for the liquid. This is the kind of dessert that you will keep trying to "even up the edges" because you want to eat more ;-)

This is a great recipe that I've been making for several years. Its a very refreshing summer dessert. The only thing I do different is replace the water that the cake mix calls for with the pineapple juice that has been drained from the crushed pinapple.

I loved this recipe. I have made it twice for my work and everybody raves at it. They think I spent hours making it - but I didn't. It's so easy. I store it in the fridge and it tastes better the next day. Thanks for the recipe. I love it. It's definitely one I will make again and again and again.
