Step-by-Step Instructions for Pineapple Coconut Dream Cake
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 9-inch round cake pan by greasing it.
  2. Cream together the softened unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour and baking powder, then gradually add to the creamed mixture until just combined.
  5. Gently fold in the well-drained crushed pineapple and shredded coconut into your batter.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  7. Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
