COCONUT COCONUT MILK CAKE



Coconut Coconut Milk Cake image

This is a super moist and tasty coconut cake. Growing up in Brazil, this was a favorite amongst our circle of friends. It is especially good with a cup of coffee on the side. I've converted a few of my anti-coconut family and friends into lovers of this cake.

Time 1h

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups white sugar
1 cup butter, softened
4 eggs, separated
1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 (14 ounce) can coconut milk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch cake pan.
  • Beat sugar, butter, and egg yolks together in a bowl using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy; add shredded coconut.
  • Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl. Stir creamed butter mixture, alternating with coconut milk, into flour mixture until batter is just mixed.
  • Beat egg whites in a glass or metal bowl until until soft peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites will form soft mounds rather than a sharp peak. Fold egg whites into batter. Pour batter into the prepared cake pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean, about 45 minutes.

COCONUT POUND CAKE (USING COCONUT MILK)



Coconut Pound Cake (Using Coconut Milk) image

I was looking online for a coconut pound cake that used coconut milk and came across one that was similar to the one that I wanted. However, I made quite a few changes and I believe that it has been perfected :-) This pound cake has a wonderfully rich coconut flavor b/c it uses coconut milk. The coconut milk and coconut are both un-sweetened, so you may add a little more sugar if you'd like, but this recipe is great even if you don't have a "sweet tooth". ADDITIONAL NOTES: After readin some of the reviews, I tried this same recipe and added a "Brown suger Toasted Coconut Glaze". It makes it even better. See below

Yield 1 loaf, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 eggs
2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup coconut milk, unsweetened
1/2 cup shredded coconut, unsweetened
1 3/4 cups sugar
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup coconut, toasted
2 tablespoons coconut milk

  • Pour batter into loaf pan and bake for 1 - 1 1/4 hours.
  • If you wish to use the glaze, heat a sauce pan to medium high heat, add butter and brown sugar. Stirring constantly, once brown sugar has dissolved add the toasted coconut, vanilla and if desired 2 TBSP coconut milk. Remove from heat and allow to slightly cool. Stir just before pouring over cooled cake.

Tips:

  • Use full-fat coconut milk. This will give your cake a richer flavor and a more moist texture.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking can make the cake dry.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting to set properly.
  • Feel free to get creative with your frosting. You can use a simple glaze, a whipped cream frosting, or even a chocolate ganache.
