You Got Your Pina Colada in my Cake...Well You Have Your Cake in my Pina Colada



LISTEN TO THE PODCAST
And thus The Pina Colada cake was created! And it's every bit the tropical paradise for your tastebuds.  Robin Robertson stopped by Tonia's Kitchen to talk about her cookbook Fresh From The Vegan Slow Cooker.  One of the recipes is right out of Rupert Holmes songbook, the Pina Colada cake.  Robin told Tonia she starts with a standard cake batter mix, flour and sugar, along with coconut and baking powder.  She then adds cream of coconut and chopped pineapple.  If you're adult, add some dark rum.  If not, Robin says rum extract will do.  Mix it altogether, and place into a 4-quart slow cooker, and watch it rise.  Then eat it, and take a trip to the tropics.
