Old-Fashioned Cajun Cake

Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30–35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Prepare the icing: In a saucepan, combine butter, brown sugar, and evaporated milk. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, and cook for 2 minutes.

Finish the icing: Stir in coconut and pecans, then remove from heat. Add vanilla and salt.

Top the cake: Pour the icing over the warm cake and spread evenly.

Cool & serve: Allow to rest for at least 30 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!

✨ Tip: Pouring the icing over the warm cake allows it to soak in, creating a rich, gooey layer that makes this dessert especially memorable.
