How to Make Pronto Pineapple Pound Cake

  1. In a medium bowl, gently combine the undrained crushed pineapple, thawed whipped topping, and instant pudding mix. Mix until just combined.
  2. Let the mixture stand for 5 minutes to allow the pudding to thicken slightly.
  3. Using a serrated knife, carefully cut the pound cake lengthwise into thirds creating three even layers.
  4. If using, drizzle the pineapple liqueur evenly over the bottom layer of the cake.
  5. Spread one-third of the pineapple pudding mixture evenly over the bottom layer of cake.
  6. Top with the second layer of cake.
  7. Repeat layering with another third of the pudding mixture and the final cake layer. Finish by spreading the remaining pudding mixture over the top layer.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the cake to chill. This step helps the cake set and enhances the overall taste and texture.
  9. Before serving, sprinkle the chilled cake generously with toasted slivered almonds.
