- 1/2 tsp vanilla
- 1 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 cup coconut- I purchased the toasted kind and sprinkled it on top.
- Note: you will need to add a few tablespoons milk to make the frosting creamy. Add one tablespoon at a time until you get the consistency you want.
Instructions

- Mix together the butter, cream cheese and sugar.
- Next mix in the eggs and vanilla. (I add one egg at a time while it's mixing)
- Add the flour and continue mixing until it's all mixed.
- Spray the 9x13 cooking pan with non stick cooking spray and spread the batter evenly in the pan.
- Bake it for approximately 40 minutes until it's fully cooked in the center.
- Frosting Instructions:
- Mix together butter, cheese, vanilla and then add the powdered sugar. Add a little bit of coconut milk as the last step to get the perfect consistency you want. I added about 3 tablespoons.
- Once the cake has cooled, apply the frosting and top with toasted coconut flakes.
