Coconut Cake

Method

Coconut Cake Directions

1

Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.

2

Mix Dry Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and shredded coconut. Whisk until well combined.

3

Cream Butter and Sugar

In another bowl, cream the softened butter with the sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

4

Combine Mixtures

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the coconut milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Stir in the vanilla extract.

5

Bake the Cake

Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans and smooth the tops. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

6

Cool and Assemble

Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
