Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups sweetened shredded coconut
  • 3 1/4 cups cake flour (sifted)
  • 1 can (13.5 ounces) coconut milk
  • 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sweetened cream of coconut
  • 5 large egg whites
  • 2 sticks unsalted butter (softened)
  • 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
  • 8 ounces cream cheese (softened)
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare three 9-inch round cake pans by greasing them and lining the bottom with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the sifted cake flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, combine the coconut milk, melted butter, sweetened cream of coconut, egg whites, and extracts until smooth.
  4. In a stand mixer, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Gradually add the wet mixture to the creamed butter.
  5. Gently fold in the dry ingredients until just combined.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared pans and bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  7. Let the cakes cool in their pans for about 10 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.
  8. For frosting, beat together softened cream cheese and butter until fluffy. Gradually add powdered sugar until desired consistency is reached; mix in extracts.
  9. Assemble the cake by layering frosting between each cooled cake layer and covering the top and sides.
