"These pineapple coconut loaves are so good and moist that sometimes I don't even bother to glaze them," shares Sybil Brown from Highland, California. The golden bread gets its tender, cake-like texture from handy boxed cake mix.

SERVINGS: 24

CATEGORY: Dessert

METHOD: Baked

TIME: Prep: 15 min. Bake: 45 min. + cooling

Ingredients:

  • 1 package (18-1/4 ounces) yellow cake mix
  • 1 can (8 ounces) crushed pineapple, undrained
  • 1 cup evaporated milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 cup flaked coconut
  • GLAZE:
  • 1-1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1 to 2 drops coconut extract, optional
  • 2 tablespoons flaked coconut, toasted

Directions:

In a large bowl, combine the first five ingredients; beat on low speed just for 30 seconds. Beat on high for 2 minutes. Stir in coconut.
    Pour into two greased 8-in. x 4-in. loaf pans. Bake at 325° for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks to cool completely.
    For glaze, in a small bowl, combine sugar and milk until smooth. Add extract if desired. Drizzle over loaves; sprinkle with coconut. Yield: 2 loaves (12 slices each).
