🕒 The Details

  • Prep time: 5 mins 🔪
  • Bake time: 45–50 mins 🔥
  • Effort level: So easy it feels like cheating! 😎

🛒 What You’ll Need

  • 1 box (15.25 oz) Yellow cake mix 🌾
  • 1 can (12 oz) German chocolate frosting 🍫
  • 1 can (20 oz) Crushed pineapple, undrained 🍍
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) Butter, sliced into thin pats 🧈
  • Optional: Extra shredded coconut or chopped pecans for topping 🥥🥜

👩‍🍳 Let’s Get Baking!

  1. The Base: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13 baking dish.
  2. The Fruit: Spread the entire can of undrained crushed pineapple evenly across the bottom of the dish. 🍍🥘
  3. The Frosting: Dollop the German chocolate frosting by the spoonful over the pineapple. Use a spatula to spread it as best as you can—it doesn’t have to be perfect! 🍫🥄
  4. The Cake: Sprinkle the dry yellow cake mix evenly over the frosting layer. Do NOT stir! 🚫🥣
  5. The Butter: Place the slices of butter all over the top of the cake mix, covering as much surface area as possible. This creates that golden, buttery crust! 🧈✨
  6. Bake: Pop it in the oven for 45–50 minutes until the top is set and the edges are bubbling with chocolatey goodness. 🥨🔥

💡 Pro-Tip:

Serve this warm with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream. The cold ice cream melting into the warm pineapple and chocolate layers is absolute heaven! 🍦🌊
