A Birthday Cake That Lucy Won't Like - Pina Colada Cake

Lucy's birthday is Friday! And although she doesn't like coconut, we must have a cake and I have an excellent recipe for a Pina Colada Cake.  It doesn't actually have coconut in it, but creme of coconut.  I don't think I can get that by her though.  I think it's yummy, and since we are in different states, this is the cake I will be making here for the party.  It's not a terribly pretty cake, but I'm not great at making cakes pretty.

When I got this recipe, it didn't have pineapple in it.  But I didn't think a pina colada cake shouldn't be without the pina so I added it.

1 can (20oz) crushed pineapple
1 pkg yellow cake mix
3 eggs
1 cup water
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 can (8 oz) sweetened condensed milk
14 oz cream of coconut
8 oz cool whip
Straw

Preheat oven to 350º.  Grease a 9x13 baking pan.  Drain as much juice as possible out of the pineapple.  Pour the pineapple in the bottom of the pan. Mix the cake mix according to directions on the box.  Pour the cake mix on top of the pineapple in the pan.  Bake according to the box. When cake is finished, remove from the oven poke a lot of holes in the top of the cake with a straw.

Pour the sweetened condensed milk and creme of coconut over the top of the cake.  Allow the cake to cool.  When cake is cooled, spread the cool whip over the top of the cake and serve.  Enjoy!
