Como fazer Aunt Ada's Carrot Coconut Cake

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
In a separate bowl, combine the grated carrots, shredded coconut, and pineapple.
Gently fold the carrot mixture into the batter.
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans.
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before inverting them onto a wire rack to cool completely.
While the cakes are cooling, prepare the cream cheese frosting. Beat together the softened cream cheese, butter, and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy.
Once the cakes are completely cool, frost the top of one layer with a generous amount of frosting.
Carefully place the second cake layer on top and frost the entire cake.
Garnish with toasted coconut flakes and enjoy!
