For the glaze:

  • 2 cups powdered sugar

  • coconut for topping

First heat your oven to 325*

Prepare your pan by spraying with pan spray, then coating with flour.

Now place your softened butter into your mixer bowl with the sugar. Blend till light and well incorporated

Now add your eggs, vanilla, almond and coconut extracts

Now add your coconut milk and milk. Blend well

Now add the flour and baking powder, mix well

Now add the pineapple tidbits and coconut

Now put the batter into pan. (This makes a huge cake, I put one small cake pan so I could not overfill my bundt pan)

Now place the cake into a heated oven,

Bake for 1 hour, then test it and add more time as needed

When your cake is done, remove from the oven and place on a cooling rack

When the cakes are cool it is time to glaze them,

To make the glaze, place powdered sugar and extract into a bowl. Now add water 1 tablespoon at a time to get the consistency you want. (I make mine thick, I like my glaze to stay on the cake)

Now while the glaze is wet, put the coconut on, as much or as little as you like.

Now grab a cup of coffee, a slice of cake and enjoy!
