Vanilla Wafer Cake

By daiseyduck

Vanilla wafer crumbs blend with coconut and pecans to create an outrageously satisfying crunch that just can't be found in cakes made with flour.

Heat oven to 325 degrees. Grease and flour a 12 cup tube pan.

Ingredients

• 1 cup margarine or sweet butter, softened
• 2 cups granulated sugar
• 6 large eggs
• 1 box (12 ozs) vanilla wafers, crushed
• 1/2 cup mile
• 7 ozs. grated coconut (fresh or frozen)
• 1 cup chopped pecans

Preparation

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, beat the margarine and sugar on low speed for 3-4 minutes until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add the crushed vanill wafers alternately with the milk. Fold in the coconut and chopped pecans.

Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted in the middle of the cake comes out clean. Cool the cake in the pan.
