How To Make mountain dew cake

  • Step 1
    Pre-heat the oven to 350 F
  • Step 2
    In a medium bowl, add cake mix, oil, pudding mix and eggs. Mix to combine.
  • Step 3
    Add the Mountain Dew; beat with electric mixer on medium speed for 2 or 3 minutes.
  • Step 4
    Pour batter into prepared bundt cake pan (sprayed with cooking spray with flour.) My handwritten recipe suggested a bundt pan but I really prefer to use a 9 x 13 cake pan.
  • Step 5
    Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the cake comes out clean.
  • Step 6
    In a medium saucepan, combine sugar, pineapple and cornstarch. Stir and cook until thick.
  • Step 7
    Remove from heat and add butter and coconut. Stir to combine well. Slowly pour hot icing over cake.
