COCONUT CAKE WITH 7-MINUTE FROSTING
Steps:
- For the cake:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly oil 2 (9-inch) cake pans. Line the bottom of each pan with parchment paper. Oil the parchment paper and then flour the pan. Set aside.
- Place the flour, baking powder and salt into a large mixing bowl and whisk to combine.
- Combine the coconut milk and coconut cream in small bowl and set aside.
- Place the butter into the bowl of a stand mixer and using the paddle attachment, cream on medium speed until fluffy, approximately 1 minute. Decrease the speed to low and gradually add the sugar slowly over 1 to 2 minutes. Once all of the sugar has been added, stop the mixer and scrape down the sides. Turn the mixer back on to medium speed and continue creaming until the mixture noticeably lightens in texture and increases slightly in volume, approximately 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the coconut extract.
- With the mixer on low speed, add the flour mixture alternately with the milk mixture to the butter and sugar in 3 batches, ending with the milk mixture. Do not over mix.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites until they form stiff peaks. Fold the egg whites into the batter, just until combined. Divide the batter evenly between the pans and bang the pans on the counter top several times to remove any air and to distribute the batter evenly in the pan. Place in the oven on the middle rack. Bake for 40 minutes or until the cake is light golden in color and reaches an internal temperature of 200 degrees F.
- Cool the cake in the pans for 10 minutes then remove and transfer to a cooling rack. Once the cakes have cooled completely cut across the equator of each to form 4 layers. Place the 1/3 cup coconut water into a small spritz bottle and spray evenly onto the cut side of the 4 layers. If you do not have a spritz bottle you may brush the coconut water on with a silicone pastry brush. Allow to sit while preparing the frosting.
- For the frosting:
- Bring 1 quart of water to a boil in a 4-quart saucepan over high heat. Decrease the heat to medium to maintain a steady simmer. In the meantime, place the egg whites, sugar, coconut water, cream of tartar and salt into a medium size-mixing bowl. Place the bowl over the simmering water and immediately begin beating with an electric hand mixer set to low speed. Beat for 1 minute and then increase the speed to high and continue to beat for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and beat in the coconut and vanilla extracts for 1 minute. Allow the frosting to sit for 5 minutes before using.
- Place approximately 3/4 cup of the frosting on the first layer of cake, sprinkle with 1/2 cup coconut and top with the next layer. Repeat until you reach the top layer. Frost the top and sides of the cake and sprinkle with the remaining coconut. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.

It's a good thing this cake serves 12, because there's no doubt everyone will be back for seconds!

COCONUT CREAM CAKE WITH COCONUT CREAM FROSTING
Found this on a site called "Mother Thyme" and as Coconut cake is my favorite decided to save. She states "The secret ingredient in the cake and the frosting is coconut cream instant pudding mix. I admit, I have an obsession with using pudding mix in many of my desserts. The coconut cream pudding mix gives both the cake and the frosting a great flavor with just the right amount of coconut in each tasty bite. If you want to get a little fancy and layer this cake, simply double the recipe. If you double the frosting, you will have extra leftover after you fill and frost the cake, but leftover frosting is never a bad thing.

COCONUT SHEET CAKE WITH MARSHMALLOW-CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
When I'm looking for a cake with a casual and homey feel I always go for a sheet cake. I love this version because it's fluffy and sweet and full of natural coconut flavor. The coconut can be used raw or toasted, although I prefer the later because it contributes a deeper flavor to the finished cake.
