12 servings

  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup butter
  • 7 tablespoons unsweetened coconut flakes
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • ¾ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 2 egg whites
  • 1 cup white sugar, divided
  • 7 ⅓ tablespoons butter
  • 1 (15 ounce) can cream of coconut
  • 1 (8 ounce) can pineapple chunks, juice reserved, divided
  • 2 egg yolks
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 2 baking pans.
  • Place brown sugar, 1/4 cup butter, and coconut flakes in a microwave-safe container and heat until warm, about 2 minutes. Mix into a paste.
  • Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl. Whip egg whites in a metal bowl with a clean electric mixer until stiff peaks are formed.
  • Beat 1/2 cup white sugar and 7 1/3 tablespoons butter in a bowl with an electric mixer until creamy. Add remaining 1/2 cup white sugar, cream of coconut, reserved pineapple juice, egg yolks, and vanilla extract; mix thoroughly. Add the flour mixture; stir batter slowly until fully combined. Fold in the whipped egg whites using a spatula.
  • Spread the brown sugar paste over the bottoms of the prepared pans. Arrange pineapple chunks on top. Pour in the batter.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until tops are brown and crisp and a toothpick inserted into the centers comes out clean, about 1 hour. Let cool, about 25 minutes. Flip cakes over onto a serving plate and out of the baking pans.
