Time 3h30m

Yield 1 (8-inch) cake, about 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 30

1/4 cup melted unsalted butter, cooled, plus more for buttering pan
1 cup crushed pineapple, drained
3 large eggs
1/2 cup canola oil
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 pound carrots, peeled and grated on the small holes of the grater (about 3 cups, lightly packed)
2 teaspoons freshly grated ginger
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups organic cane sugar
1/2 cup lightly packed brown muscavado sugar
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/8 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup finely diced crystallized ginger
3/4 cup coarsely chopped toasted pecans
Cream Cheese Marshmallow Frosting, recipe follows
3 tablespoons water
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons light corn syrup
1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoon granulated sugar
1/2 vanilla bean, seeds scraped and reserved
2 large egg whites
Pinch salt
Pinch cream of tartar
8 ounces cream cheese, slightly softened
1 stick unsalted butter, slightly softened
1 pound organic powdered sugar, sifted twice
2 cups Fluff
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter and flour 2 (8-inch) round cake pans and line the bottoms with parchment paper. Butter the parchment well too.
  • Pulse the pineapple in a food processor fitted with a metal blade until it is finely chopped. Put the eggs in a bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat the eggs for 10 seconds. Add the oil, 1/4 cup melted butter, vanilla, carrots, chopped pineapple and grated fresh ginger and mix until combined.
  • Whisk together the flour, sugars, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and salt in a bowl until combined. Add the wet ingredients and beat on low speed just until combined. Remove and fold in the crystallized ginger and pecans. Divide the batter between the 2 pans.
  • Bake until the tops are a very golden brown and a tester inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs, 40 to 55 minutes. Let the cakes cool in the pans for 15 minutes, then invert them onto a wire rack and let them cool completely. Remove the parchment from the bottoms of each cake. Cool completely before frosting.
  • In a small saucepan fitted with a candy thermometer, bring the water, corn syrup, 1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar and vanilla bean to 246 degrees F. Before adding the syrup to the egg whites below, carefully remove the vanilla bean.
  • In the meantime, in a completely clean, dry mixing bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whip the egg whites, salt and cream of tartar until creamy and foamy, about 2 minutes. Still whisking, sprinkle in the remaining 1 tablespoon of sugar and continue to whisk until the whites hold very soft peaks, about 2 minutes. While mixing on slow speed, carefully drizzle in the hot syrup. Turn the mixer to high and whisk until thick, fluffy and just warm, about 7 minutes. Turn the mixer to low and whisk in the reserved vanilla seeds. Scrape the fluff into a bowl. Wash the bowl and whisk and return them to the machine.
  • Combine the cream cheese and butter in the bowl of the mixer and mix until light and fluffy. Add the powdered sugar and mix on low until combined. Increase the speed and whip until light and fluffy. Add about 2 cups of Fluff and the vanilla and whip until combined. Refrigerate for 15 minutes if too soft to use as frosting.

COCONUT SHEET CAKE WITH MARSHMALLOW-CREAM CHEESE FROSTING



Coconut Sheet Cake with Marshmallow-Cream Cheese Frosting image

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.

Time 1h45m

Yield 12 to 15 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

Baking spray with flour
1 cup unsweetened full-fat coconut milk, shaken
3 large eggs, at room temperature
1/4 cup vegetable oil or melted unrefined coconut oil
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
2 2/3 cups (335 grams) all-purpose flour
1 2/3 cups (330 grams) granulated sugar
1 cup flaked coconut, sweetened or unsweetened, toasted if desired, chopped
2 3/4 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon fine salt
10 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into cubes and at room temperature
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
Pinch fine salt
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 cup confectioners' sugar
2/3 cup marshmallow creme (1/2 a 7-ounce container)
1 1/4 cups flaked coconut, sweetened or unsweetened, toasted if desired

Steps:

  • For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a 9-by-13-by-2-inch cake pan with baking spray with flour. Line the cake pan with parchment paper and coat the parchment with the baking spray.
  • Whisk the coconut milk, eggs, oil and vanilla together in a large measuring cup until smooth. In
  • the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the flour, sugar, chopped coconut, baking powder and salt. Mix on low for 30 seconds to combine.
  • With the mixer still on low, begin adding the cubed butter and mix until no pieces of butter remain and the mixture looks like cornmeal, 2 to 3 minutes; it should hold together when squeezed.
  • With the mixer still on low, add half of the liquid ingredients and mix to combine. Scrape the bowl and paddle with a rubber spatula. Increase the speed to medium and beat for 20 seconds. Reduce the speed to low and add the remaining liquids. Mix just until combined. Scrape the bowl and give the batter a few folds with your spatula.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs, 32 to 34 minutes. Cool the cake on a wire rack completely before frosting.
  • For the marshmallow frosting: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter until smooth, about 1 minute. Scrape the bowl and then add the cream cheese and beat on medium speed until smooth, 1 to 2 minutes. Scrape the bowl again and add the salt, vanilla and confectioners' sugar and mix on low until combined. Scrape the bowl and paddle. Mix on medium speed until completely smooth, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the marshmallow creme and then mix on high speed for 1 minute.
  • Spoon the frosting over the cooled cake and spread it evenly. Sprinkle with the flaked coconut and serve. Cover and refrigerate any leftovers for up to 2 days, making sure to bring the cake back to room temperature before enjoying.
