Great and easy recipe! For topping I put instant vanilla pudding with a little reserved pineapple juice in it and then added cool whip on top of that! Thanks for posting!

You would never guess this is a “light” pretty much guilt free dessert. We love the regular version, but our favorite is the Black Forest Version. I use Special Dark Cocoa powder and regular canned filling. Black Forest Cake version, Add 1/3 cup cocoa powder to the cake mix and substitute 1 can of lite cherry pie filling for the crushed pineapple.

Really good. Made it tonight, as a quick cake for my husbands birthday. His favorite cake is Pineapple Upside, and this was very similar to it, but MUCH easier. I used a bundt pan, but it didn't want to release from the pan... But that was ok, we just scooped it out and ate it warm. It was very tasty. I will definitely make it again!

I was looking for this under the Weight Watchers recipes since that was where I first heard it. I wish I could remember how many points there were...
