How to Make Tropical Cream Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or spray a half sheet pan (or a 13x9 inch pan).
- Prepare your favorite boxed cake mix according to package directions.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for the time specified on the cake mix box (usually 25-30 minutes).
- Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean. The cake is also done when it springs back lightly to the touch.
- While the cake is baking, prepare the frosting: In a medium bowl, beat together 8 ounces of softened cream cheese, 1 cup crushed pineapple (from a 20-ounce can), and 1/2 cup granulated sugar until smooth and creamy.
- Adjust the sugar to your desired sweetness.
- Gently fold in 1 (8-ounce) container of thawed cool whip.
- Refrigerate the frosting mixture until the cake has completely cooled.
- Once the cake is cool, frost generously with the pineapple cream cheese frosting.
- Slice and serve! Enjoy your delicious Tropical Cream Cake.
