Directions:
Prepare the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Grease and flour a 10-cup Bundt pan, ensuring all grooves are well-coated for easy release.
Mix Dry Ingredients:
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
Cream Butter and Sugar:
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
Incorporate Eggs and Extracts:
Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla and coconut extracts for flavor.
Add Pineapple and Coconut Milk:
Fold in the crushed pineapple, followed by the coconut milk and pineapple juice. Mix until just combined.
Combine and Mix:
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until the batter is smooth and no lumps remain. Fold in the shredded coconut.
Bake the Cake:
Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan, spreading it evenly. Bake for 60–70 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 15 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Prepare the Glaze:
In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and pineapple juice until smooth and pourable.
Glaze and Garnish:
Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cake. Sprinkle with shredded coconut for a delightful garnish.
Serve:
Slice and serve your Pina Colada Pound Cake for a sweet tropical escape. Perfect for any occasion!
