1 box of yellow cake mix (or your favorite cake mix)
1/2 cup of coconut milk (or regular milk)
3 large eggs
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup crushed pineapple (drained)
1/2 cup diced mango
1/2 cup diced kiwi
1/2 cup diced strawberries
1 tablespoon lime juice
1/4 cup shredded coconut (optional, for garnish)
Whipped cream or frosting for topping (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the yellow cake mix, coconut milk, eggs, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth, either with a hand mixer or a whisk.
Gently fold in the crushed pineapple (make sure it’s well-drained) to add a hint of tropical flavor to the cake batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and smooth it out evenly.
Bake for about 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
While the cake is cooling, prepare the tropical fruit salsa. In a small bowl, combine the diced mango, kiwi, strawberries, and lime juice. Stir gently to mix.
Once the cake has cooled, top it with the tropical fruit salsa, spreading it evenly over the surface.
Optional: Sprinkle shredded coconut on top for added texture and flavor. You can also add a dollop of whipped cream or a light layer of frosting if desired.
Slice, serve, and enjoy this refreshing tropical treat! 🍰
