Coconut Cream Cake

🍰 Desserts

Coconut-studded layers under cream frosting and a snowfall of flaked coconut. Deeply flavourful with a soft, even crumb and golden edges. Keeps well covered for three days — if it lasts that long.

Prep 27 min Cook 47 min Serves 11 Medium

Ingredients

  • Butter3 tbsp
  • Heavy Cream1/4 cup
  • Salta pinch
  • Eggs3
  • Sugar1 cup
  • Baking Powder2 tsp
  • Vanilla Extract1 cup, chopped
  • Grated Coconut1 cup

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 175 C / 350 F, grease the tin and dust it so nothing sticks later.

  2. 2

    Cream the butter, sugar and butter together until the mixture turns several shades lighter.

  3. 3

    Fold the flour and heavy cream through in two additions; overmixing makes a dense crumb.

  4. 4

    Bake in the middle of the oven for 30-35 minutes; cool in the tin for ten before turning out.

  5. 5

    Level the top, pile on the frosting, and let it rest ten minutes before slicing.

Chef's tip

Resting a custard or pudding overnight deepens the flavour and sets a cleaner slice.
