Grease and flour a bundt pan or a 9\u00d75-inch loaf pan to prevent sticking.<\/p>\n<p>In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.<\/p>\n<p>In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Then mix in vanilla extract and almond extract (if using).<\/p>\n<p>Alternately add the flour mixture and buttermilk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.<\/p>\n<p>Gently fold in the shredded coconut and chopped pecans. Do not overmix to maintain the cake\u2019s tender texture.<\/p>\n<p>Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for 60-70 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.<\/p>\n<p>Let the cake cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before glazing.<\/p>\n<p>In a bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and milk until the glaze is creamy and pourable.<\/p>\n<p>Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cake and sprinkle with toasted pecans and coconut flakes for added texture and flavor.<\/p>\n<p>Prep Time: 20 minutes | Cooking Time: 60-70 minutes | Total Time: 1 hour 30 minutes<\/p>\n<p>Kcal: 420 kcal | Servings: 12<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Omggggg!
