Then add milk, oil and pineapple chunks and 1/2 cup of shredded and toasted coconut. Add a teaspoon of coconut rum if desired and mix evenly.Preheat oven at 325 degrees F for about 10 minutes.Meanwhile grease two 8 inch pans (any pan of your choice) and pour the cake batter into them after greasing them with a little butter.Bake in oven for 25 minutes or more till the toothpick inserted in the middle of the pan comes out clean. Take the pans out and cool on a wire rack.Meanwhile for the frosting, beat the butter till it becomes light in a blender. Add sugar, coconut milk to the butter and mix well to achieve a creamy texture.Take the cakes out of the pans. On a plate, first keep a cake and apply frosting all over the cake.
