Ingredients:
- 4 eggs
- 3 cups sugar, divided
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 3 teaspoons baking powder
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 cup flaked coconut
- 1 cup pecans
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 cup butter
- 2 teaspoons coconut extract, divided
- Confectioners sugar, for dusting
Instructions:
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
-
In a mixing bowl, combine eggs, 2 cups sugar, oil, and 2 teaspoons of coconut extract; mix well.
-
In another bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt. Add the dry mixture to the egg mixture alternately with buttermilk, stirring just until moistened.
-
Stir in coconut and pecans until evenly distributed in the batter.
-
Spoon the batter into a well-greased 10-inch tube pan, spreading it evenly.
-
Bake for 60 to 70 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
-
While the cake is baking, prepare the syrup. In a saucepan, combine the water, butter, and remaining 1 cup of sugar.
-
Bring the syrup mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 5 minutes.
-
Remove the syrup from the heat and stir in the remaining teaspoon of coconut extract.
-
Once the cake is baked, remove it from the oven and place it on a wire rack.
-
While the cake is still hot, slowly pour the hot syrup over the cake, allowing it to soak in.
-
Let the cake cool in the pan for at least 4 hours before removing it onto a serving plate.
-
Before serving, dust the cake with confectioners sugar for a beautiful finish.
