Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 2 teaspoons baking soda
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1.75 cups white sugar
• 1 cup vegetable oil
• 3 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 cups shredded carrots
• 1 cup flaked coconut
• 1 cup chopped walnuts
• 1 (8 ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained
• 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
• 0.25 cup butter, softened
• 2 cups confectioners' sugar

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan. Gather all ingredients.
2. In a large bowl, combine flour, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Create a well in the center and add sugar, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix with a wooden spoon until well combined. Stir in shredded carrots, coconut flakes, chopped walnuts, and crushed pineapple. Pour cake batter into the prepared baking pan.
3. Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool completely before frosting. (The center might sink slightly while cooling).
4. For the frosting: In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese and butter until smooth and creamy. Gradually add powdered sugar and beat until the frosting is light and fluffy. Spread the cream cheese frosting evenly over the cooled cake. Cut into squares and serve!
