Coconut pound cake
For the Cake
2 cups sugar
1 cup Crisco
4 eggs
3 teaspoons coconut flavoring
1 cup buttermilk
3 cups cake flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
For the Glaze
2 cups sugar
1 cup water
2 tablespoons white Karo
1 teaspoon coconut flavoring
3 tablespoons butter
Preheat oven to 325.
Cream Sugar and Crisco.
Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each.
Add Flavoring.
Sift dry ingrediants together and add alternating with the milk- begin and end with the flour.
Bake in greased and floured tube pan for 1 hour and 20 minutes. You might want to start checking on this after 1 hour - sometimes my cake is finished about then.
When cake is almost finished, start making the glaze.
To make the Glaze: Put all ingredients for the glaze in pot and cook over medium heat.
Let mixture boil for 5 minutes. It will bubble so you will need to watch it carefully so it won't boil over onto your stove - trust me, you don't want that to happen.
When removed from the oven, pour glaze over the cake while it is still in the pan and let sit at least 8 hours or overnight.
To remove from the pan, place the cake in the oven at 250 degrees for 5 minutes or long enough to loosen to the sugar glaze surrounding the cake.
The cake should slide out of the tube pan easily - if it does not, put it back into the oven for a few more minutes and then try again.

My recipe is actually for Mountain Dew cake, but there is a strong flavor of coconut cream in it, and you can top the icing with coconut flakes:
