Fast. Simple. Delicious. Dessert. When you see those 4 words, a decadent cake may not come to mind, but trust me you can make a cake in minutes if you start with a box. In the summer I can't be bothered to spend so much time in the kitchen - especially if it's hot out! With this recipe, a summer cake - best served chilled - is put together by taking help from the store in order to save time and energy - you won't even need to win a brand new mixer to whip this one up. Melt in your mouth yellow cake is topped with a pistachio-cream cheese-pineapple mixture, followed by a fluffy layer of cool whip and a dusting of chopped nuts. Sound tempting doesn't it?
