RECIPE: https://cakesbymk.com/recipe/moist-co... SHOP: https://www.amazon.com/shop/cakesbymk So I just thought that I wasn’t a huge coconut cake fan, BUT this recipe CHANGED MY MIND! So much so that I would consider this coconut cake to be one of my new favourites – it’s that good! This recipe consists of super soft and moist coconut cake layers, topped with an incredibly delicious coconut cream cheese frosting. It’s finished off with shredded coconut added to the outside of the cake which adds amazing texture to the cake – YUM! INGREDIENTS: Coconut Cake 2¼ cups (280 g) flour - regular, all purpose ¼ cup (30 g) cornstarch - also known as cornflour 1 tbsp baking powder ½ tsp salt - omit if using salted butter ½ cup (113 g) unsalted butter - room temp 5 tbsp (66 g) unflavoured vegetable oil - I use canola oil. In the video I say 3 tbsp (40g), but have recently tried with 5 tbsp (66g) and recommend it :) 1⅔ cups (332 g) white granulated sugar 3 large eggs - room temperature 1½ tsps vanilla essence/extract 1 tsp coconut essence/extract - can substitute with 1/2 tsp almond essence/extract (see note 1) 1¼ cups (275 g) canned coconut milk 1 cup (80 g) shredded coconut - dried, also called threaded coconut Bake at 160 °C (320°F) with the fan on for 33 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
