Cake
1 box Betty Crocker SuperMoist carrot cake mix
1/2 cup orange juice or water
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 can (8 oz) crushed pineapple in juice, undrained
1 teaspoon orange peel
1 teaspoon vanilla
4 eggs
1/2 cup chopped nuts
1/2 cup coconut

Frosting

minutes, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10
minutes. Run knife around side of pans to loosen cakes; remove rounds from
pans to cooling racks. Cool completely, about 1 hour. Stir orange peel
into frosting. Place 1 cake layer, rounded side down, on serving plate.
Spread with about 1/3 cup frosting. Place other layer, rounded side up,
on top. Frost side and top of cake with remaining frosting or frost top
of 13x9-inch cake. Store in refrigerator. High Altitude (3500-6500 ft):
