Do Nothing Cake...

I worked with another nurse many years ago, and she was a great baker, anyway, before she retired she gave me this recipe she had found in an old newspaper, called "Do Nothing Cake", I would call it pineapple pecan coconut goodness...It is delicious and all from scratch, but couldn't get any easier...If you don't like pineapple don't worry you really won't know it's there, it just make the cake super moist...

I made it last week and gave my Mom half and my husband and my girls snacked on it all week long..It really is a wonderful cake and one of the most moist cakes I have ever tasted, and it's one of those recipes I will pass on to my girls, I have made it for many years now, and everyone loves it...try it!!!
