Ingredients

1. Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13 inch baking pan.
2. Prepare the Batter: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, crushed pineapple, shredded coconut, vegetable oil, eggs, water, and vanilla extract. Mix until well blended.
3. Pour and Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
4. Prepare the Glaze: While the cake is baking, mix the powdered sugar and pineapple juice in a small bowl until smooth.
5. Glaze and Top: Once the cake is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes. Drizzle the glaze over the warm cake and sprinkle the toasted coconut on top.
6. Cool Completely: Allow the cake to cool completely before serving.
