Pineapple coconut butter cake is moist, light, and loaded with tropical flavor! This cake has real butter, sweet pineapple, and freshly shredded coconut. It melts in your mouth!

A few months ago, I made what is quite possibly one of the best and easiest cakes I have ever made.  That morning I had been trolling the Internet in search of a dessert for that evening.  I was Stumbling  around from one site to the next and lo and behold, there it was….

Light shined down from Heaven and angels sang, because I had found what I was looking for!  I already knew I would love it – after all, it did have ‘Butter’ in the title. ????

Immediately, I got to work, and a few hours later, the cooled pineapple coconut butter cake was ready to eat.

I am not going to lie – I have made this cake three times since then.  I made some modifications to the original recipe, as per the recipe creator’s notes.  He suggested adding apples in place of the pineapple, or adding fresh coconut to the pineapple.  Man, was he right!

Who is this ‘He’ I keep referring to?  None other than Chef Dennis!  He is a real culinary inspiration to me, and I simply drool over his posts.  I would like to thank him for this wonderful cake recipe.
