Directions:
Preheat oven to 350°F. In a large bowl, Whisk together all the batter ingredients until just combined. Pour into a greased 13×9 baking dish, and bake for 30-40 minutes or until a wooden toothpick, inserted in the middle comes out clean. Don’t overbake. While cake is still baking, prepare the frosting. Heat the butter, sugar, and evaporated milk in a small saucepan until boiling. Cook and stir for about 5 minutes, or until slightly thickened. Remove from heat and add in the coconut and pecans. Remove the cake from oven, and using a kabob skewer or wooden spoon handle, or some similary-sized object, begin poking holes in the cake. Pour frosting over the hot cake, spreading it out to make sure it’s all evenly dispersed. Allow cake to cool for a bit before cutting.
