ORANGE-COCONUT ANGEL FOOD CAKE RECIPE - (4.7/5)



Orange-Coconut Angel Food Cake Recipe - (4.7/5) image

Provided by á-72953

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (16-ounce) package angel food cake mix
1 cup cold water
1/3 cup orange juice
2 teaspoons orange extract, divided
1 3/4 cups cold fat-free milk
1 (1-ounce) package sugar-free instant vanilla pudding mix
1 tablespoon grated orange peel
1 1/4 cups flaked coconut, divided
1 (8-ounce) carton frozen reduced-fat whipped topping, thawed, divided

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, water, orange juice and 1 teaspoon orange extract. Beat on low speed for 30 seconds. Beat on medium for 2 minutes. Spoon into an ungreased 10-inch tube pan. Bake at 375°F for 30 to 35 minutes or until lightly browned and entire top appears dry. Immediately invert pan onto a wire rack; cool completely, about 1 hour. Run a knife around sides of cake and remove from pan. In a small bowl, whisk milk and pudding mix for 2 minutes. Stir in orange peel and remaining orange extract. Let stand for 2 minutes or until soft-set. Fold in 3/4 cup coconut and 3/4 cup whipped topping. Split cake into three horizontal layers. Place bottom layer on a serving plate; top with half of the pudding mixture. Repeat layers. Top with remaining cake layer. Frost top and sides of cake with remaining whipped topping. Toast remaining coconut; sprinkle over top and sides of cake. Store in the refrigerator.

Tips:

  • Use fresh oranges: Fresh oranges yield the best flavor and aroma for the cake. If you don't have fresh oranges, you can use store-bought orange juice, but the flavor will be less vibrant.
  • Zest the oranges before juicing them: Zesting the oranges before juicing them will give you a more intense orange flavor. Be sure to use a microplane zester or a fine grater to get the most zest out of the oranges.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy: This will help to incorporate air into the cake, making it light and airy.
  • Add the eggs one at a time: This will help to prevent the cake from curdling.
  • Fold in the flour mixture gently: Overmixing the batter can toughen the cake. Be sure to fold in the flour mixture until it is just combined.
  • Bake the cake at a moderate temperature: A moderate temperature will help to prevent the cake from browning too quickly and will ensure that it cooks evenly throughout.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

This orange coconut angel food cake is a delicious and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The orange and coconut flavors complement each other perfectly, and the cake is light and airy. It is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
