This pineapple and coconut cake recipe is super easy to make too! Start by creaming butter and sugar before beating in eggs and sour cream. Sift in the dry ingredients and finally mix in the coconut and pineapple. Bake in a preheated oven until a skewer comes out clean. Once the cake has cooled completely, dust with powdered sugar and enjoy!
