Pina Colada Cake

Yes, you caught me! Its been almost 2 weeks since my last post. I don't really know what I have been doing either....I guess just taking a break. School starts again on Thursday so I had to properly say goodbye to my summer. I have been doing some yummy cooking these past two weeks so I have tons of new recipes to share with you!

Today I'll be sharing the recipe for one of the most yummy cakes I have had in a while. I like to call it a pina colada cake as it consists of pineapple, coconut, and cream. Its the perfect cake to celebrate the end of the summer! It is also super easy to make. I got the recipe from Paula Deen. She likes to call it the better than sex cake. I guess you'll have to make the cake yourself to see if the cake lives up to its name.
