Pina Colada Cake!
Susan’s back with a great recipe for Pina Colada Cake!
I asked my hubby what cake he wanted for his birthday party. Ok, I made him a Deep Dish Mango Pie for his actual birthday but that was before his party. He told me he wanted a Kathie Jackson Pina Colada Cake. She is an old friend from the days of farming and he has never forgotten that yummy cake. I couldn’t find her recipe, so I improvised….of course. She has been on my mind every since. I also made some chocolate cupcakes for my daughter’s birthday….which we were celebrating too. These gluten free cake mixes are really delicious!
Ingredients
- 2 Betty Crocker Yellow Gluten Free Cake Mixes
- 1 20 oz can crushed pineapple (draining and saving the juice)
- Add ingredients listed on back of the boxes substituting the pineapple juice for as much of the water as possible (sorry but I forgot to write those down).
- 1/3 cup sour cream
- 1 can Lopez Cream of Coconut
- 1 can Eagle Brand Sweetened Condensed Milk
- 1 carton Cool Whip
- water (see below)
Instructions:
- Drain the pineapples, catching the juice. Put the juice in a two cup measuring cup and add enough water to make 2 cups of liquid or whatever the cake mix requires.
- In a mixing bowl, put 2 cake mixes along with the ingredients listed on the back, sour cream, and the juice/water mixture. Blend well.
- Mix in the pineapples.
- Put batter in a greased 10×14 pan and cook at 350 until done (time listed on the back of the box, adjusting for the size of pan). If using a regular cake mix put it in a 9×13 pan instead.
- In a bowl, mix together 1/2 can of Cream of Coconut and 1 can Eagle Brand Milk.
- While cake is hot, poke holes all over it. Pour milk mixture slowly and evenly over the cake with holes.
- Let it cool completely and then refrigerate until cold.
- Mix the carton of Cool Whip along with the other 1/2 can of Cream of Coconut and spread over cold cake. Optional: add coconut flakes.
- Store this cake in the refrigerator.
Hi, my name is Susan and I am a mother of four and a grandmother to 5 and that, along with my husband and 2 dogs, take up my most of my time. I am a side-tracked Home Executive and I had the privilege of being a stay –at-home mom so, you might say that my passion is the home and making a haven for those I love. I am quite skilled at shopping 🙂 and finding a bargain just makes my day.
