### 👩‍🍳 How to Make Juicy Pineapple Heaven Cake

#### 1. **Bake the Cake**

* Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
* Prepare cake mix according to box instructions, but fold in **half of the crushed pineapple (with juice)** into the batter before baking.
* Pour into a greased 9×13-inch pan and bake according to package directions (typically 25–30 minutes).
* Let cake cool completely.

#### 2. **Pineapple Infusion**

* Once the cake has cooled, **poke holes all over the surface** using a fork or the handle of a wooden spoon.
* Pour the remaining crushed pineapple (with juice) evenly over the top. This will soak into the cake and make it **extra juicy**.

#### 3. **Make the Whipped Topping**

* In a bowl, whisk together pudding mix and cold milk until it thickens.
* Gently fold in the whipped topping and vanilla extract until smooth.

#### 4. **Frost and Chill**

* Spread the creamy topping over the pineapple layer.
* Refrigerate the cake for at least 2 hours to allow everything to set and flavors to meld.
