Pina Colada Pound Cake


Why is this a Foodgasm? 

Piña Colada is the stuff summer is made of and I don’t know about you, but I could use a slice of summer. If you’re in the part of this country where you experience the bitter cold…I know you are sooooo done with all of this. I have the answer here! A lowfat easy and delish  piña colada poundcake. 
Loaded with not only fresh pineapple and coconut milk- it also has coconut oil and is covered in toasted coconut. This dense and delish cake is a treat you don’t have to feel any guilt for at all!
