Ingredients

  • 2 3/4 cups cake flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup butter, softened
  • 4 egg whites
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 teaspoons coconut extract
  • 1 (15 oz) can full fat coconut milk, after baking

Topping

  • 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 teaspoons coconut extract
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream, chilled
  • 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut, for topping

Preparation

  1. Cake: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and thoroughly grease a 9x13-inch cake pan.
  2. In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, and salt, then mix in sugar.
  3. Slice butter into pats and use a hand mixer to mix in a couple tablespoons at a time until it reaches a sandy, crumbly texture.
  4. Slowly mix in egg whites, followed by the whole egg.
  5. Add heavy cream, vanilla, and coconut extract and mix for 1-2 minutes until well combined and airy.
  6. Transfer batter to the prepared cake pan and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
  7. Remove cake from oven and immediately use a fork to poke shallow holes in the top. Shake can of coconut cream and pour over the top. Allow cake to cool to room temperature and fully absorb cream.
  8. Topping: In a large bowl, add cream cheese and mix until smooth. Add sugar, vanilla, and coconut extract and mix until well combined. Slowly mix in heavy cream and beat until stiff peaks form, about 3-4 minutes.
  9. Frost cake and sprinkle remaining coconut on top. Chill until ready to serve.
