How to Make This Cake Almost Tastes Like A Pina Colada

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch bundt pan.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter and 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 4 large eggs, one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with 1 cup of unsweetened shredded coconut and 1 cup of crushed pineapple, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  6. Pour batter into the prepared bundt pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. While the cake is cooling, prepare the glaze: In a small saucepan, combine ½ cup granulated sugar, ¼ cup pineapple juice, and 2 tablespoons butter. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar is dissolved and the glaze is slightly thickened.
  9. Once the cake is completely cool, drizzle the glaze over the top. Serve with whipped cream.
