Ingredients

The ingredients you’ll need for this recipe are:

Cake

2 tablespoons of unsalted soft butter
2 cups of all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons of baking soda
2 teaspoons of ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon of salt
4 large eggs
2 cups of sugar
3/4 cup of vegetable oil
3/4 cup of buttermilk
2 teaspoons of vanilla extract
1/3 cup of crushed pineapple (be sure to drain the juices)
2 cups of finely grated carrot
1 1/3 cup of shredded coconut
2 cups of finely chopped walnuts

Buttermilk glaze

1 cup of sugar
1/2 cup of buttermilk
1/2 cup of butter
1 tablespoon of corn syrup
1/2 teaspoon of baking soda
1 tablespoon of vanilla extract

Frosting

1 1/2 cups of softened butter
12oz of cream cheese
3 cups of confectioners’ sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons of orange juice
1 1/2 teaspoons of vanilla extract

Recipe

Once you’ve gathered your ingredients, it’s time to start baking!

Preheat your oven to 350F. And grease 2 9 inch baking pans in preparation
Sift the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt together
Grab a large bowl and mix the oil, butter, and sugar together until light and fluffy
One at a time, add the eggs. Only add the next egg, once the previous one is combined
Now add the buttermilk and vanilla extract and combine well
Grab your sifted flour mix and add half to your batter. Mix well and add the pineapple, carrots, coconut, and half of the walnuts
Combine well. Now add the remaining sifted flour mix and mix well.
Distribute the batter between your two greased pans and bake for around 40 minutes. A toothpick should come out clean when placed in the center
Now for the glaze while the cake is cooking. Grab a saucepan and mix the buttermilk, butter, sugar, corn syrup, and baking soda. Place on medium heat until well blended. Heat for around 3 minutes and no sugar remains
Remove from heat and add the vanilla extract
Once the cake is baked and cool, use a toothpick to prick around 20 holes in the top of each cake
Mix your glaze and pour over the cakes
Cover the cakes with wrap and refrigerate for around 6-8 hours
Finally – the frosting. Mix the butter and cream cheese until light and fluffy. Now add the juice, zest, sugar, and vanilla. Mix until frosting is smooth
Get your cakes from the fridge and invert one (the glazed side should be down). Put a third of the frosting in the center and spread to the edges. Grab the other layer (glazed side down) and frost this one too. Now add your remaining walnuts
Your cake is ready!
