COCONUT CARROT CAKE
You can't really go wrong with carrot cake, and this deluxe recipe is no exception. Packed with shredded carrots, juicy pineapple, coconut flakes and chopped nuts, it's truly loaded. To take it over the top, this carrot cake with coconut is generously topped with a homemade cream cheese frosting that has the perfect balance of sweet and tangy. It's a good thing this cake serves 12, because there's no doubt everyone will be back for seconds!

CARROT CAKE WITH PINEAPPLE CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
This rich, moist cake has all the flavor, without all the fat and calories. Because it is so full of carrots, pineapple, and nuts it is similar to a fruit bread. For the best flavor, bake the cake one day ahead.

CARROT-PINEAPPLE CAKE WITH CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
I haven't made this particular recipe yet, but I have had this cake before and it's super moist and delicious...needless to say I look forward to trying this recipe out soon! I got this from Food Network's The Barefoot Contessa. **UPDATE** I made the cake, and it is DEElicious, however I had way too much frosting, and the calories were outrageous. I have amended the recipe to use only half the amount of frosting. If you'd like the original amount, just double it.
