This was quite good (though I think making the cake from scratch is a little better). I especially loved the addition of the coconut (I may even add a little more next time) and I really dislike coconut.
I hate to be one of those cooks that gives everyone their advice, but I added a few things that my family really liked, so here they are:
First, I melted 1/4 cup butter in EACH pan in the oven, then added 1/3 cup brown sugar to each and mixed before adding the pineapple, etc.
Second, I whipped one pint of cream and added a small amount of crushed pineapple; I used this as a "filling" between the layers. It was great when sandwiched between two hot, oozing layers and supported the top layer so cracking was not an issue (I even transported it to my inlaws without any issues). I really thought these two additions put it over the top, of course, they didn't make it any healthier! :P
