pineapple and coconut dream cake 🍍🥥🍰
ingredients:
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
1/2 cup granulated sugar
5 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup coconut milk
1 cup crushed pineapple, drained
1 cup shredded coconut
1/2 cup pineapple chunks (for garnish)
1/2 cup toasted coconut flakes (for garnish)
3 cups cream cheese frosting
1 can sweetened condensed milk
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour three 9-inch round cake pans.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, alternating with the coconut milk, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until combined.
Stir in the crushed pineapple and shredded coconut until evenly distributed.
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then turn them out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, spread a layer of the whipped cream cheese frosting with sweetened condensed milk over one cake layer. Place the second cake layer on top and repeat with the third layer. Frost the top and sides of the cake.
Garnish with pineapple chunks and toasted coconut flakes.

I will have less of a presence on The Torrid Tribe Community. We have very little activity here. This is a sign to me that members have found other social media resources that they are spending more time in. I am happy to see less censorship on social media in general. I started The Torrid Tribe 4 years ago when we were in a state of censorship and lockdowns. It was a difficult time and this was a haven and sanctuary for so many.
I will be lightly posting things here to give you all content to see. This community will always be open to everyone and will resurrect to its full capacity if subscribers show they want it fully operational again with full time administration.
Thank you for being a part of this community. Sending each of you hugs.
