Claudine's Louisiana Cajun Cake Recipe
* Exported from Master Cook *

This cake recipe was developed from an idea given to me by a friend. I made a few changes to the original recipe and came up with this one. Neither my friend nor I come from Louisiana nor or we "Cajun", so I don't know why this is called Louisiana Cajun Cake (we are both Texans), but it is so very good and food that comes from Louisiana is quite tasty. Enjoy!

For Cake:
In a large bowl, combine ingredients for cake and mix by hand until frothy and well mixed.
Pour into prepared baking pan and bake in preheated oven until golden brown on top.
While cake is baking, prepare icing.

For Icing:
In a medium saucepan, combine sugar, evaporated milk and butter.
Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture comes to a boil.
Continue to stir and boil for exactly 4 minutes.
Remove from heat and stir in vanilla, coconut and pecans.
Spread warm icing over cake as soon as it comes out of the oven.
Store in covered pan.

Serving Size : 12


NOTES : This cake is very moist and stays that way until it is all gone.
