PINA COLADA PINEAPPLE POUND CAKE

Steps:

• This cake is baked in an oven that starts cold, so there's no need to preheat it. Grease a bundt pan very well and lightly dust it with flour. You can also use 2 standard loaf pans that have been lightly greased and lined with parchment paper.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer cream the butter, sugar and vanilla & coconut extract very well, for at least 10 -15 minutes. The aim is to incorporate as much air as possible into the creamed base of the batter. Scrape the sides and the bottom of the bowl several times during the creaming process.
• Add the eggs, one at a time and beat for at least a minute or two before adding the next egg.
• Sift together the flour, cake flour, toasted coconut and baking powder.
• Fold the dry ingredients into the creamed mixture alternately with the undiluted evaporated milk. Always begin and end the folding process with the dry ingredients. As a general rule, I add the dry ingredients in three portions and the milk in two portions.
• With the last addition of milk, fold in the pineapple as well.
• Spoon the batter into the prepared pan/s, spreading the top with the back of a spoon to level it.
• Place in a cold oven and turn the temperature to 325 degrees Baking times will vary on the size of the cake pans. My bundt pan took 1 hour and 30 minutes. Loaf pans should be checked after an hour. As always, let the wooden toothpick or skewer test be your guide. Insert a wooden toothpick or skewer into the center of the cake and when it comes out clean the cake is done. Watch it closely and only add extra time in 5 minute intervals, checking with a clean toothpick each time, so that you will not over bake the cake.
• Let the cake/s rest in the pans for 10 - 15 minutes before turning onto a wire rack to cool completely.
• When completely cool return the cake to the pan, that you have lined with plastic wrap so that you can soak the cake in rum. This step is optional if you don't like rum or prefer not to.
• Using a wooden skewer, poke small holes all over the surface of the cake and slowly spoon about 4 ounces(or lesof rum over the surface, directly over all the holes.
• Cover and let the cake rest for an entire day before adding the glaze and serving.
• Cream together the butter, ing sugar and vanilla.
• Begin adding the rum, a little at a time until the frosting turns the consistency of a thick glaze.
• Spoon over the pound cake.
• You can use less rum and keep it as a frosting if you prefer but you will probably need to double the recipe to cover an entire bundt cake.

• For the cake: Meanwhile, generously coat a 12-cup Bundt pan with cooking spray. Whisk the cake mix with the oil, eggs, 1/2 cup water and remaining 1/2 cup rum until smooth. Remove the pineapples from the syrup, reserve the syrup.
• Line the bottom and center cone and sides of the Bundt pan with whole pineapple slices (about 13 slices). Cut the remaining 3 slices in half and place them around the empty space at the top so the entire Bundt is lined. Put a cherry in the center of each whole pineapple slice. Pour the batter on top of the pineapples. Bake until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean and the cake springs back when touched, about 45 to 50 minutes.
• Immediately place a heat proof serving platter on top of the Bundt pan and flip the pan over (use oven mitts to help you). Remove the pan from the cake and let cool completely, about 1 hour.

Press the tip into the side of the cake and squeeze in some pudding. Rotate and repeat around the cake.

Cook, stirring occasionally, until the dried pineapple is soft and the liquid is reduced to a thick syrup, about 20 minutes. Let cool, then mash with a potato masher to make a chunky jam.
• Make the frosting: Beat the butter and salt in a large bowl with a mixer on medium speed until smooth and fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes. Gradually beat in the confectioners' sugar until smooth. Add the cream of coconut, increase the mixer speed to medium high and beat until thick, 2 to 3 more minutes.

Cover the whole cake with the coconut frosting. Top with the toasted coconut and dried pineapple.

Reduce the mixer speed to medium; beat in the eggs, one at a time, scraping down the bowl as needed. Beat in the vanilla. (The mixture may look separated at this point.)
• Mix 1/2 cup water with the cream in a liquid measuring cup or bowl. Beat the flour mixture into the butter mixture in 3 batches, alternating with the cream mixture, beginning and ending with flour, until just smooth.
• Divide the batter between the prepared pans. Bake until the cakes are lightly golden on top and the centers spring back when pressed, 25 to 30 minutes.
