I found this recipe on the box of cake mix years ago. It was one of those recipes that you are always finding on a slip of paper, or you find that coconut wrapper with a recipe on it? Come on, you do it too! This is really good! Something about coconut and pineapple! I used a yellow cake, but you could easily go with a white cake; you may have to use a little lemon extract.
Ingredients:
18 1/4 ounces lemon cake mix
1/2 cup flaked coconut
1/2 cup chopped nuts (i used almonds)
2 tablespoons margarine or 2 tablespoons butter, melted
1 (13 1/4 ounce) crushed pineapple
1/4 cup vegetable oil
3 eggs
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 350°.
2. Grease and flour 12-cup bundt cake pan.
3. Mix coconut, nuts and margarine or butter; sprinkle in pan.
4. Drain pineapple thoroughly, reserving syrup.
5. Add enough water to syrup to measure 1 1/4 cups.
6. Beat cake mix (dry), oil, pineapple liquid and eggs in large mixer bowl on low speed, scraping bowl constantly, until moistened.
7. Beat on medium speed, scraping bowl frequently, 2 minutes.
8. Pour batter into pan.
9. Spoon pineapple evenly over batter.
10. Bake until cake springs back when toughed lightly in center, 40 to 45 minutes.
11. Cool 10 minutes; invert on wire rack or heatproof serving plate.
12. Remove pan; cool completely.
