What a great cake. My friend Donna loves Angel Food Cake...This one is for her. The toasted coconut adds a subtle flavor and wonderful chewy texture to the light and fluffly cake, while the pineapple teases us with a taste of the tropics.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Place egg whites in large bowl and set aside until needed.
- Sift the flour and 1/2 cup sugar, 3 times and set aside.
- Add salt to the egg whites, beating until foamy.
- Add the cream of tartar, almond and vanilla extracts, beating until stiff.
- Beat in the remaining cup of sugar, slowly sprinkling 1/4 at a time over the egg whites. Beating just until lightly blended.
- Next, gently add the flour mixture by fourths.
- Once the flour has been added, you may fold in the toasted coconut.
- The batter goes into an ungreased tube pan. (10").
- Make sure to cut through the batter with a knife to remove any air bubbles.
- Bake in a 375 degree oven for 35 minutes.
- Let sit until cooled. I place the cake upside down ontop of a large pop bottle to cool.
- Once the cake has cooled completely loosen with a knife and invert onto a cooling rack.
- Mix together the pineapple tidbits, coconut and cool whip.
- Slice the cake vertically and place one half on the serving plate and top with the cool whip mixture.
- Place the remaining cake overtop, cover and chill until ready to serve.
- You may serve as is or with a nice pineapple sherbert or vanilla ice cream.
