Cajun Pecan Cake
Ingredients
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 (15 ounce) can crushed pineapple
  • 1 1/2 cups white sugar
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 3/4 cup evaporated milk
  • 1/2 cup margarine
  • 1 cup chopped pecans
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit, or 150 degrees Celsius for international measurements.
2
Next, take a moment to grease an 11x14-inch baking dish with some cooking spray or oil.
3
Meanwhile, in a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour, crushed pineapple, 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar, 3 large eggs, baking soda, and a pinch of salt.
4
Pour the mixture into your prepared 11x14-inch baking dish and place it in the oven.
5
Allow the cake to bake for approximately 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into its center comes out spotless.
6
Simultaneously, in a separate saucepan, combine 1 cup of sugar, 1 cup of evaporated milk, and 2 tablespoons of margarine.
7
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat for just 1 minute, stirring occasionally.
8
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in some chopped pecans and a dash of vanilla extract.
9
Using a toothpick, create a small hole in the top of your cake and spread the pecan topping evenly over its surface.
