Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 can (20 oz) crushed pineapple (with juice)
  • 1 cup chopped pecans (optional)
  • 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut (optional)
  • 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
