Cake Ingredients

  • 2 cups All-purpose flour
  • 1 cup Granulated sugar
  • 1 cup Butter softened
  • 4 Eggs
  • 1 cup Buttermilk
  • 1 teaspoon Baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 1 cup Sweetened shredded coconut
  • 1 cup Chopped pecans

Instructions 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour three 9-inch round cake pans.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  3. In another bowl, sift together the flour and baking soda. Add to the creamed mixture alternately with buttermilk, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Stir in the vanilla, coconut, and pecans.
  4. Pour batter into the prepared pans. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool in pans for 10 minutes, then remove to wire racks to cool completely.
