I knew for the end of the summer I wanted to make a couple of summery cocktails, including a Piña Colada Shotible. What I wasn't sure of was if I should use a pineapple cake glass or coconut cake. I decided to put it to the people for you to vote on the website. Your clear choice was coconut cake.
I definitly agree that you guys made the right choice witht he coconut cake. A lot of people aren't big fans of the texture of coconut. Putting it into the filling may have been a bit much for them, but having just a little in the cake batter allowed it to provide flavor without being offensive.
I used a box french vanilla cake, but instead of following the normal directions, I added some coconut milk and a little shredded coconut. I baked them up and scooped out the inside.
I made the filling with vanilla pudding mix, pineapple coconut rum, milk, heavy cream and crushed pineapple. And, of course, what would a summer cocktail be without a little umbrella on top.
The Piña Colada Shotible turned out to be a great poolside treat.
