Assemble the Cake:

1. Frost the Cake: Place the first layer of the cooled cake on a cake stand. Use a spatula to generously apply a layer of frosting over the top. Place the second layer of cake on top and frost the entire cake, covering it evenly.
2. Add Coconut Garnish: Position the cake stand over a baking sheet to catch any excess coconut. Press handfuls of the sweetened shredded coconut gently onto the sides and top of the cake until fully covered.
3. Serve: Your cake is now ready to serve! Slice and enjoy the delicious combination of coconut and cream cheese frosting.

Enjoy your delicious homemade cake!
