Steps:
- 1. Toast coconut AND nuts. Spread each out on a separate baking sheet in a single layer. Bake at 350 F for 12-14 minutes, stirring often to avoid burning. Coconut and macadamia nuts are toasted when they are lightly browned and fragrant. Coconut will toast faster than the nuts.
- 2. Cut or tear angel food cake into bite-size pieces. Set aside.
- 3. In a medium-size bowl, combine crushed pineapple and 1/2 jar of pineapple preserves. Mix well and set aside.
- 4. In a large bowl, combine the instant pudding mix and milk. Using a wire whisk, mix well. Then add 1 cup of the whipped topping. Set aside.
- 5. Using a trifle bowl or a large glass bowl, layer ingredients: half of the cake pieces for the first layer.
- 6. Next, half of the pineapple.
- 7. Next, half of the coconut and half of the macadamia nuts.
- 8. Spread half of the pudding over everything. Repeat layers using the rest of the cake, pineapple, coconut, macadamia nuts, and then the pudding.
- 9. Generously spread top with whipped topping. Garnish with reserved toasted coconut and nuts.
- 10. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
