Granny Cake

 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 tsp baking soda

 1/2 tsp salt

2 eggs 

1 (20 oz) can crushed pineapple with the juice

1/2-1 cup finely chopped pecans

1/2 - 1 cup brown sugar

Mix together sugar, flour, baking soda, salt, eggs  until well blended.  Spray a 9x13 in casserole dish.  Pour in cake mix.  Top with chopped pecans and brown sugar.  Bake in a 350 degree oven for 40-45 minutes.  

During the last 5-10 minutes of baking make the icing.

Icing:

1 stick butter

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1 cup evaporated milk

1 tsp vanilla

Add icing ingredients to a saucepan on medium heat to a boil.  Turn off the heat and add 1 tsp vanilla.  Pour it all over the top of the cake right out of the oven.  It will soak into the cake.  You can poke it with some holes to help it along.  Serve.
