My mother-in-law always makes this pound cake for holidays. That makes this cake very special, but it really could be made any time of the year! Even people who don't like the texture of coconut love this cake because the only coconut in it is the flavoring.

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 c butter
½ c margarine
6 eggs
3 c sugar
3 C. flour
¼ t baking soda
½ t coconut extract
1 carton sour cream
1 c. coconut
¾ c sugar
¾ c water
1 t almond extract

Steps:

  • Mix butter and margarine, add sugar and cream 10 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well. Stir flour with soda and add alternately with sour cream. Fold in coconut and coconut extract. Pour into a greased tube pan and bake at 325 degrees for 1 ½ hours. Freezes well. Make the sauce: combine the sugar, water, and almond extract and boil five minutes. Pour over cake or serve separately.

Tips:

  • Use room temperature ingredients. This will help the cake batter to mix together more smoothly and evenly.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a lighter and more tender cake.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Stir in the dry ingredients gradually. Overmixing the batter can result in a tough cake.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking the cake will dry it out.
  • Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
