Mine was very yellow on the inside though. This is a perfect coconut cake recipe - easy & incredibly tasty. The only basic changes I made were to use a fork instead of a straw to poke the holes pour the cream/cond milk mixture while the cake is still hot and I made fresh whipped cream. The cake itself is soft, fluffy, and moist and the frosting is creamy coconut buttercream!
Steps to make Coconut Cake:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and spray a 9 inch spring form pan with non-stick spray and set aside. You can also make this cake in a 10 inch Bundt Cake pan.
- In a small bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, salt and set aside.
- In the bowl of your electric mixer (or with a hand mixer), beat together the butter, sugar and coconut oil until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, vanilla extract and continue to mix until all the ingredients are well incorporated.
- Pour the buttermilk and beat until combined. Slowly add the dry ingredients and mix it all together until it’s incorporated. Gently fold in the shredded coconut.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean, for about 45 minutes. Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting.
- For the frosting, in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat cream cheese, butter and vanilla extract until well blended. Slowly add powered sugar and continue to mix until smooth.
- Once the cake has completely cooled, spread the top and the sides of the cake with frosting, and top it with flaked coconut.
A lot of coconut cakes have cream cheese frosting, but I prefer mine with coconut buttercream. It's fluffy and sweet, and partners with the cake texture in a gorgeous way. Cake dreams are happening today, lads. To add the coconut to the top and sides of cake, place cake stand on a baking sheet (to help catch excess coconut). Fill hand with coconut and press gently into sides of cake.
