Zubereitung von Fresh Coconut Cake With Icing
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour three 9-inch round cake pans.
- **Cake:**
- Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 4 large egg yolks, one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, sift together 2 ½ cups cake flour, 3 ½ teaspoons baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt. Set aside.
- In another bowl, combine 1 cup buttermilk and 1 cup unsweetened coconut milk.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- In a clean bowl, beat 4 large egg whites until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the egg whites into the batter.
- Divide the batter evenly among the prepared cake pans.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before inverting them onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- **Icing:**
- In the top of a double boiler (or a heat-safe bowl set over a pan of simmering water), combine 1 cup granulated sugar, ½ cup heavy cream, ½ cup unsweetened coconut milk, and ¼ cup unsalted butter.
- Whisk constantly until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is smooth and creamy (about 6-8 minutes).
- Remove from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 1 cup shredded sweetened coconut.
- Once the cakes are completely cool, frost the top of one layer with a generous amount of icing. Top with the second layer and repeat.
- Frost the top and sides of the cake with the remaining icing. Garnish with extra shredded coconut.
- Secure layers with toothpicks if needed.
