How to Make Sharing Cake

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 13x9 inch baking pans.
In a large bowl, prepare your favorite boxed cake mix according to package directions (using ingredients listed below).
Divide batter evenly between the prepared pans.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let cakes cool completely in pans before frosting.
While cakes cool, prepare the frosting: In a large bowl, whisk together the pudding mixes, milk, and coconut extract for 2 minutes.
Add softened cream cheese and beat until smooth and creamy.
Gently fold in the drained crushed pineapple.
Once cakes are completely cool, frost the tops of each cake evenly with the pineapple coconut frosting.
Top with whipped cream and sprinkle generously with shredded coconut.
