Ingredients:
    • 2 cups all-purpose flour
    • 2 cups granulated sugar
    • 1 teaspoon baking soda
    • 2 large eggs
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • 1 can (20 ounces) crushed pineapple, undrained
    • 1 cup chopped pecans (plus extra for topping)
    • 1 cup shredded coconut (optional)
    • Cream Cheese Frosting:
    • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
    • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
    • 4 cups powdered sugar
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions:
    • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
    • In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and baking soda. Mix well.
    • Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients, and then stir in the crushed pineapple with its juice. Mix until well combined.
    • Fold in the chopped pecans and shredded coconut, if using.
    • Pour the batter evenly into the prepared cake pans and smooth the tops.
    • Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
    • Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
    • For the Frosting:
    • In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and butter together until smooth and creamy.
    • Gradually add the powdered sugar, one cup at a time, beating well after each addition.
    • Stir in the vanilla extract until fully combined.
    • Assembly:
    • Place one cake layer on a serving plate and spread a generous amount of cream cheese frosting on top.
    • Place the second cake layer on top and frost the top and sides of the cake.
    • Sprinkle extra chopped pecans on top of the cake for decoration.
    • Refrigerate the cake for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the frosting to set.
