HUMMINGBIRD CAKE

Steps:

• For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray three 9-inch cake pans with nonstick cooking spray and coat the insides lightly with flour, knocking excess out.
• Whisk together the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, salt and nutmeg in a large bowl.
• Beat together the granulated sugar, oil, coconut flakes, vanilla, eggs, bananas and crushed pineapples in a separate medium bowl. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until completely combined. Fold in the pecans.
• Divide the batter among the prepared cake pans. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or the cakes bounce back when lightly pressed with a finger, 20 to 25 minutes. Allow to cool for 30 minutes before removing from the pans and cooling completely on a wire rack. Once completely cooled, level the tops using a serrated knife.
• For the buttermilk frosting: In the meantime, beat the butter in a stand mixer until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add the confectioners' sugar 1 cup at a time, beating after each addition until smooth and fluffy. Add the buttermilk, vanilla and salt and beat just to combine. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• Use the buttermilk frosting to assemble the cake and decorate with dried pineapple rings and coconut chips.

EASY HUMMINGBIRD CAKE (FROM A BOXED CAKE MIX)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350.
• Mix all ingredients in a large mixing bowl until well combined.
• Divide mixture equally between 2 greased 9" round cake pans.
• Bake on both pans on middle oven rack for approximately 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
• Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes then remove cakes from pans and let cool completely on wire racks.
• Place one cake (the "bottom" one) on a plate and frost with cream cheese frosting, taking care to make it heavier on top.
• Place the other cake (the "top" cake) on top of the already frosted cake to create a layer cake.
• Frost the top cake so it blends with the bottom cake and forms a two-tier layer cake.
• NOTE: If the cakes are not flat on the top, use a long knife to cut the "baking bump" off so they are flat BEFORE you frost them. It will give them a more uniform appearance.
