A really yummy cake

I don't make this cake very often. In fact, I think it has probably been 10 years since I made it last. I don't know why. I made two this weekend- one to take to a church function and one for the family. It was such a big hit with everyone that I decided to share the recipe:



Pineapple Coconut Cake

1 box yellow cake mix (with pudding)

Mix and bake as directed on box. About 5 minutes before done, boil (1) 20 oz can crushed pineapple & 1 cup sugar for 5 min. Remove cake from oven and poke full of holes. Pour hot pineapple mixture over hot cake. Best to do several hours before planning to serve.

When cooled, mix one large box of instant vanilla pudding as directed. Spread over cake. Sprinkle with coconut. Let set up. Then spread one small carton of Cool Whip over top of pudding . Top with toasted coconut and/or chopped nuts.

Enjoy !
