Ingredients
  • All-purpose flour
  • sugar
  • baking powder
  • salt
  • eggs
  • butter
  • coconut cream
  • crushed pineapple
  • sweetened shredded coconut
  • coconut extract; frosting with more coconut cream and toasted coconut
Instructions
  1. Mix a standard cake batter, but use coconut cream as part of the liquid and fold in drained crushed pineapple and shredded coconut for a tropical twist.
