How to Make Thai Coconut Cake With Mango Sauce

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch tube pan.
  2. In a large bowl, beat 4 large egg whites on high speed for 3 minutes, until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 4 large egg yolks, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, ½ teaspoon salt, ½ cup vegetable oil, 1 (13.5 ounce) can coconut milk, and 1 teaspoon coconut extract.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 teaspoons baking powder and 2 cups all-purpose flour.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in the beaten egg whites until just incorporated. Be careful not to deflate the batter.
  7. Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. While the cake cools, prepare the mango sauce:
  10. Combine 2 cups ripe mango chunks, ½ cup mango nectar, ¼ cup granulated sugar, and 2 tablespoons lime juice in a blender or food processor.
  11. Blend until smooth. Strain if desired for a smoother consistency.
  12. To serve, gently warm the mango sauce in a saucepan over low heat.
  13. Slice the cake and serve with a generous drizzle of warm mango sauce.
  14. Garnish with toasted unsweetened coconut flakes (optional).
