Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Cake
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large bowl, combine the sugar, flour, eggs, baking powder, vanilla, and crushed pineapple (including the juice). Stir everything together with a spoon until well mixed.
Pour the batter into a 13 x 9-inch cake pan and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 2: Make the Glaze
While the cake is baking, prepare the glaze. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the butter, sugar, and evaporated milk. Cook the mixture until it thickens slightly, which usually takes about 5 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the shredded coconut, chopped walnuts, and vanilla extract.
Step 3: Glaze the Cake
Once the cake is done, poke holes all over the surface using a fork or skewer. Pour the warm glaze over the hot cake, allowing it to soak in.
Step 4: Serve and Enjoy
Let the cake cool slightly before serving. The frosting will soak into the cake, making it incredibly moist and flavorful. Enjoy your delicious and juicy pineapple cake with coconut walnut glaze!
