"These pineapple coconut loaves are so good and moist that sometimes I don't even bother to glaze them," shares Sybil Brown from Highland, California. The golden bread gets its tender, cake-like texture from handy boxed cake mix.

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 package yellow cake mix (regular size)
1 can (8 ounces) crushed pineapple, undrained
1 cup evaporated milk
2 eggs
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 cup flaked coconut
GLAZE:
1-1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons 2% milk
1 to 2 drops coconut extract, optional
2 tablespoons flaked coconut, toasted

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine the first five ingredients; beat on low speed for 30 seconds. Beat on high for 2 minutes. Stir in coconut.
  • Pour into two greased 8-in. x 4-in. loaf pans. Bake at 325° for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks.
  • For glaze, in a small bowl, combine sugar and milk until smooth. Add extract if desired. Drizzle over loaves; sprinkle with coconut.
  • Yield: 2 loaves (12 slices each).
