How to make Pineapple Upside Down Cake Trifle

For this recipe, you will need a yellow cake mix, a 3.5 oz. box of pudding mix, a pint of heavy whipping cream, a can of pineapple chunks, and some maraschino cherries. Of course you can use your favorite homemade cake recipe too.

2. Make the pudding as directed on the box.

3. For added pineapple flavor, mix about 3 tablespoons of the canned pineapple juice in with the pudding. (Until you can taste some pineapple, but the pudding still should keep its consistency.) This is actually SUPER DELICIOUS! Try not to eat it before you make your trifle!

4. Layer the cake, whipped cream, pineapple and pudding.

5. End with whipped cream and a cherry on top. For more information on how to layer a large trifle dessert see our Fresh Berry Trifle post. We made ours into mini trifle desserts using little mason jars. Makes a very fun and refreshing treat.

Ingredients

4 cups of vanilla pudding (instant is fine)
1 can of pineapple in juice
2-3 cups of cake cubes (a 9x13 yellow cake is best, any recipe.)
3-4 cups of whipped cream (fresh is best)
About 2 cups of sugar
Maraschino cherries

Instructions

Drain the juice from the can of pineapple into a cup. Cut your cake into cubes, whip your cream, and make your pudding. Add about 3 tbsp. of pineapple juice from the can to the pudding for added flavor. Then start layering in a medium size bowl or trifle dish. Or you can layer individually into mason jars. Continue layering until all the ingredients are gone, finishing with whip cream on top. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Enjoy!
