My friend gave me this recipe decades ago. I always add coconut and pecans. I was told it was Sharon’s Best Ever Cake. I always use a cream cheese frosting but thus one looks good.
I was searching easy coconut cake for my potluck tomorrow and this came up. Looks so good. I just may try this! Thank you for sharing w your lovely mom. God bless.😊
I’m so sorry I am just seeing this. To make the icing you boil one stick of butter, 6 ounces of evaporated milk, and one cup of sugar for two minutes. Then you add 1 cup of coconut flakes and one cup of pecans. Enjoy.
I'm not sure how much a stick of butter is in the UK, but in the US it's generally 1/2 cup or about 113 grams, just in case additional clarification would be helpful
This would have been the perfect pineapple cake if I would have stuck to my gut feelings and put in 1 tsp of salt not 4 as you stayed on your clip. So sad have to make another one because I’m totally bummed😮. I am not a real baker just learning so I’ve learned I must go with what I’ve learned about baking so far. Thank you.
The cake looked so sumptuous that I had to try it. The actual cake batter didn't taste that good, not even after baking. The butter mixture is amazing and really makes the cake. But would I make this cake again? No I wouldn't. As a cake it's not that great. But I might try the butter mixture in another cake.

It looks like a 9" x 13" which is pretty common in the US, so something with similar measurements would probably be fine. Also, most cakes are baked at 350 F, but without a fan.
She said your friends will love it, and I thought to myself, it ain’t gonna make it to my friends..
Lol 😆 lol 😂
Good, isn’t it?
LOL

jdegroat01 😍yes for sure 😍

We are glad too 😊

Thank you 😊
The frosting is really close to German Choc Frosting. No browning, no egg yolks.
Gonna have to make this..
😊❤️
I have that recipe that someone gave it to me, they called it a Chop Suey cake...whatever it's called, it's Delicious!
Similar to Hummingbird and Tornado Cake recipes Coconut Pieapple nuts etc. Very similar and very very rich!!
Yes very rich. My favorite 😍
Wish you put recipes and measurements down below in the more description area
agree with you
Looks just amazing; although, is it extra sugary? Seems triple sweet, the sauce, the pineapple syrup, and then initial sugar.
To me it is perfect 😍
Which cool rack is your favorite?I made this Thanksgiving for a family and they loved it!
I’m so glad. ❤️ I really don’t have a favorite. Blessings 😍

It’s 1/4 teaspoon of salt. You can plainly see we did not put 4 teaspoons in it.
@@BootsAndBonnetWithChrisChristy you prob right. Just wanted to put it out there for those just learning to bake. :)
The first addition for salt was 4 tsp . Then she said 1/4 later . I knew as a baker this was wrong.
I would use low sugar pineapple
That is the largest bottle of vanilla I have ever seen 😅
😂😂
You didn't say if it was condensed or evaporated milk. You just said carnation and pet
Evaporated ❤️
Happy Easter ❤Thank you
Happy Easter ❤️
Kennedy has asked me to make this. I can't wait to try it. What temp did you bake the cake on?
Oh it’s delicious. We bake at 350 degrees.
@@BootsAndBonnetWithChrisChristy Cake look delicious. Do you use sweetened or unsweetened coconut in it?
@@IQscan51 we use sweetened. Blessings ❤️
The cake looked so sumptuous that I had to try it. The actual cake batter didn't taste that good, not even after baking. The butter mixture is amazing and really makes the cake. But would I make this cake again? No I wouldn't. As a cake it's not that great. But I might try the butter mixture in another cake.
Thank you for your review. I’m sorry you didn’t care for it. It is my favorite all time cake. I asked for it every birthday. Blessings to you. ❤️
Safi456 would you mind giving me the ingredients for the topping as I couldn't understand her accent. 😊
@@April-py3jc1 stick butter
6 oz evaporated milk
1 cup sugar
1 cup pecans
1 cup coconut
and vanilla not sure how much i would say possibly 1 tsp-3 tsp not sure
I will be trying this out. I love pineapple. How much coconut and pecans?
One cup of each. You will love it. ❤️
It spelled Boil like Bowl!! LOL. And they say we have funny words an annunciations sometimes like Roof & Rough spoken in America...
I would say a Southern accent is incredibly charming. Some things are pronounced differently, but that's just part of the charm.
Roofer is a good one.
Looks yummy! What kind of flour AP or SR? If AP no baking powder?
Nicky Batton We have used both kinds. No baking powder in either. It is a very dense cake. Hope you love it as much as we do 😍
Acid reaction between pineapple & soda; bk pwdr not necessary.
no need for the topping to cool down before dumping into the cake?
No it needs to be hot. Blessings ❤️
@@BootsAndBonnetWithChrisChristy thanks for your prompt reply!
Enjoy 😊
Can you use self rising flour as well, instead of all purpose flour?
No. Has to be all purpose

4:21 -- so pineapples are the fat like applesauce?
Yes. Blessings ❤️
I'm going to leave out the salt.
That what brings the flavor out
@@ziggymorris8760 That would be to much salt.
All that sugar ... like there is no tomorrow.
It’s it wonderful!? In moderation of course! Blessings. 😊
For some people there isn’t.
Dadgum what cake doesn't have sugar.😂
Hi, just for clarification, it's evaporated milk that you pour on the pot for the topping & not condensed milk right?
@@dgred1610 yes 👍
