Pineapple Coconut Cake
1 pineapple cake mix
1 can sliced pineapple (save juice)
1 can (or 1 cup) shredded coconut
1/2 cup chopped pecans
Make cake mix according to directions but use the pineapple juice in place of the water. This can be made in loaf pans, round pans or 9 x 13 baking dish. Spray the pan you plan to use with non-stick spray. Lay out the pineapple. Sprinkle with coconut. Sprinkle with pecans. Bake according to the directions on the package for the pan size you're using.
Comments: This is one of the best cakes I've ever had the pleasure of eating and all of my food testers agree. There is one ingredient I love to use but have a hard time finding. It's a grated coconut in a can with coconut milk. When I do find this it's usually in the Mexican food section but I seldom run across it. If you use this grated coconut with milk, spoon it over the pineapple, picking up some of the milk as you go. Use about 1/2 the can over the pineapple and include the remaining into the cake mix. Just make sure you take the amount of coconut milk into consideration when adding liquids to your cake mix. I measured my remaining milk and then added the pineapple juice to come up with the amount of liquid the cake mix called for.
