Cream of #Coconut Cake ❤
INGREDIENTS :
For the cake:

1 ½ cups (285g) granulated sugar
½ cup (118 ml) vegetable oil
2 tablespoon (28g) unsalted butter, melted
2 large egg
2 large egg white
½ cup (118 ml) sour cream
2 ½ cups (350g) all-purpose flour
2 teaspoon (7.5g) baking powder
1 teaspoon (4.5g) baking soda
1 teaspoon (5g) salt
1 tablespoon (15ml) coconut extract
1 teaspoon (5ml) pure vanilla extract
1 1/3 cup (315ml) coconut milk, well stirred

For the filling:

1 ¼ cup (296ml) heavy whipping cream, divided
4 teaspoons (13g) cornstarch
1/2 cup (114g) unsalted butter
¾ cup (142g) granulated sugar
2 ¼ cups (170g) shredded coconut, sweetened
¼ teaspoon vanilla extract

For the icing:

1/2 cup (114g) unsalted butter, softened
12 oz (339g) cream cheese, softened
1 teaspoon (5ml) vanilla extract
3 cups (390g) powdered sugar
2 cups (151g) shredded sweetened coconut, toasted

INSTRUCTIONS :

For the cake:

🔸 Preheat the oven to 350°F. Prepare three 8-inch round baking pans, line the bottom with parchment paper, and grease the sides. Prepare your bake even stripes if desired.
🔸 In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar, vegetable oil, butter, eggs and sour cream. Beat on medium speed until well incorporated and the batter is lighter in color, about 2 minutes. Scrape down the bowl as needed.
🔸 In a separate bowl, combine the remaining dry ingredients. Alternate adding half the dry ingredients, the extracts, and half the coconut milk at a time and mix just until the flour starts to incorporate. Repeat until all ingredients have been added. Use a spatula to scrape down the sides of the bowl and stir the batter from the bottom to the top to ensure it’s well mixed.
