Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.

In a large bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the coconut milk and vanilla extract.

Gradually mix in the dry ingredients until just blended. Fold in the crushed pineapple and shredded coconut.

Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

In a separate bowl, beat together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and heavy cream until smooth and creamy.

Once the cake has cooled, spread the cream cheese frosting evenly over the top. Garnish with pineapple slices.
