Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 cups sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
20 oz can crushed pineapple
1/2 cup salted butter
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2/3 cup evaporated milk
1 cup sugar
1 cup chopped pecans
1 cup sweetened coconut flakes

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Spray a 9 by 13 inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
  • In a large bowl, stir together all cake ingredients until blended.
  • Pour into prepared dish and bake 30-40 minutes or until toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Remove to cooling rack and poke holes about 1 inch apart in the cake with a wooden skewer, chopstick, or handle of a wooden spoon.
  • Combine butter, vanilla, evaporated milk, and sugar in a medium saucepan. Heat over medium high heat, stirring often, until thickened, about 3-5 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and stir in nuts and coconut flakes. Pour mixture over the cake while it is still hot and spread evenly. Let topping set a few minutes before serving for best results.
