COCONUT SOUR CREAM CAKE

Steps:

• Grease and flour two 9 inch pans. Prepare cake mix as directed by manufacturer, adding almond extract. Bake according to instructions on package. When cake is cool, remove from pans and cut in half, horizontally.
• To make the filling, mix together the sour cream and sugar in a medium sized bowl. stir in 1 1/2 cups of the coconut. reserve 1 cup of this mixture and spread the rest between the cooled cake layers.

COCONUT SOUR CREAM CAKE

Steps:

• Approximately 8 hours prior to making cake, combine sour cream, thawed coconut and sugar. Refrigerate 8 hours and let flavors blend.
• Mix cake mix, butter, eggs and water per instructions on box and pour batter into two 8" greased baking cake pans. Bake as per instructions and allow to cool. Cut cake layers in half making a total of four layers. (I have found that using dental floss cuts a layer nicely into halves. I also trim the brown off of the outer cake edges.).
• Frost with sour cream mixture and stack layers. Spread cool whip evenly on outer cake edges and on top. Sprinkle top with coconut flakes.
• Keep refrigerated at least one day before cutting cake. Better if you can wait two or three days, but it's very hard to do that!
• Enjoy this very moist cake!

SOUR CREAM COCONUT CAKE

Steps:

• 1. I have successfully revised the original recipe over the years by adding the frosting as the middle filling of this six-layer cake and increasing the amount of frosting considerably. The original recipe suggest using the 1, 2, 3 day approach (day 1: prepare filling; refrigerate/day 2: prepare cake/day 3: assemble cake). While this isn't entirely necessary, it is important to prepare at least the filling one day before baking the cake so the flavors of the coconut, sugar and sour cream can unify.
• 2. Mix sugar, sour cream and coconut together; refrigerate overnight. Next day, bake cake according to package directions in two 8 inch round cake pans. After cake is completely cooled, split layers, making six layers. Reserve 1 ½ cups sour cream, sugar and coconut which will be combined to make the mixture/filling for frosting (see below). Divide remaining mixture/filling generously between all the layers EXCEPT the middle layer when joining the two cakes together. Here is where you will use the frosting and then proceed to use the filling to complete the layering of the cake. Sorry I don't have pictures to explain this better.
• 3. FROSTING for middle layer, top and sides of cake: combine the 1 ½ cup sour cream, sugar and coconut mixture/filling with the Cool Whip. You will use almost the entire 16 ounce container but start by reserving the 1 cup (for another use) as you don't want the frosting to be too soft or fluid. The consistency of the frosting should be a little stiff. You can adjust as needed by adding more or less Cool Whip. The original recipe only called for an 8 oz container (don't think they make the 8 oz size anymore) but I think the added frosting adds to the beauty of the cake.
• 4. This cake MUST be kept in the refrigerator in an air-tight container (e.g. Tupperware). It is BEST if stored in the fridge for THREE days before serving so the cake can soak up the filling and the frosting. It is an extremely moist cake. For the holidays, you can even sprinkle coconut on top. Caution: you will want to serve in smaller portions (16 slices) as it is very rich and you don't want to waste a morsel!
