Step 1

Separate eggs, set whites aside.

Step 2

Beat wet ingredients together including egg yolks until fluffy.

Step 3

Sift dry ingredients together and stir well. In a separate bowl, combine buttermilk and coconut extract. Set aside.

Step 4

Add dry ingredients to wet using mixer on low speed alternating with buttermilk/extract mixture.

Step 5

In a clean bowl, beat egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff. Fold egg whites into batter.

Step 6

Line two 9-inch pans with baking spray and flour (or what works BEST is lining the bottom and sides of the pan with parchment paper- cut a circle for the bottom of the pan and a strip for the sides and still spray above and below the paper)

Step 7

Bake at 275 degrees for about 90 minutes (this cake comes out much nicer when cooked at a lower temperature). After about 60 minutes, do the "toothpick test", repeating every 5-10 min or so until the toothpick comes out clean.

Step 8

After the cake is out of the oven and transferred to parchment paper or a cooling rack, poke each cake with a few holes (making sure not to poke all the way through) and drizzle 1/2 cup of coconut cream over the top. This keeps the cake extra moist.

Step 9

After the cake completely cools, gently cover it with some plastic wrap and transfer to the freezer to freeze overnight.

Step 10

The next day, frost immediately after removing from the freezer (see frosting recipe below). This keeps the cake from crumbling while it is being frosted. Put a layer of frosting in-between the two cakes and then continue to frost the remainder of the cake.

Step 11

After frosting, sprinkle the cake with toasted coconut (instructions for toasting are below). Allow the cake to thaw for about an hour before serving.

Step 12

Beat butter, cream cheese, and coconut extract together, adding powdered sugar little by little until reaching desired consistency.

Step 13

If it seems to get too stiff, add about 1 tsp of milk at a time until you get the consistency you want (add milk to thin it out, add powdered sugar to thicken it up).

Step 14

Place contents of about 1/2 bag of sweetened, shredded coconut on a cookie sheet. Spread it out so it makes just a single layer. Bake at 325 degrees for approximately 8-10 minutes. Some pieces will still be white and soft, some browned slightly with a little crunch.

Step 15

Press toasted coconut into the frosting all over the top and sides of the cake.
