CHOCOLATE COCONUT CAKE



Chocolate Coconut Cake image

Provided by Giada De Laurentiis

Categories     dessert

Time 2h25m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Nonstick spray
One 14-ounce bag sweetened shredded coconut (about 4 cups)
2 teaspoons instant espresso
1 1/4 cups water
One 15.25-ounce box chocolate fudge cake mix, such as Betty Crocker
1/2 cup vegetable oil
3 eggs
Two 8-ounce blocks Neufchatel cream cheese, at room temperature
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/3 cup coconut milk
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 1/2 cups powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray two 9-inch cake pans with nonstick spray and line the bottoms with parchment paper.
  • Sprinkle half of the shredded coconut on a baking sheet. Toast in the oven until golden brown, stirring often, about 15 minutes. Let cool on the baking sheet.
  • Combine the instant espresso and water in a measuring cup; stir until dissolved. Add to a medium bowl, along with the cake mix, vegetable oil and eggs. Beat for 2 minutes with a handheld mixer on medium speed. Divide the batter between the prepared cake pans and smooth the tops.
  • Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of a cake comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then invert onto a baking rack and let cool completely.
  • Meanwhile, combine the cream cheese, butter, coconut milk, salt and powdered sugar in a large bowl. Beat with a handheld mixer on medium speed until light, fluffy and smooth, about 4 minutes. Stir in the remaining (untoasted) coconut with a rubber spatula.
  • If the cakes have domed in the center, trim to level the tops. Place one cake layer, up-side down, on a platter or plate. Spoon one-third of the frosting on top and spread evenly, almost completely to the edge. Place the other layer, up-side down, on top, pressing gently to anchor. Using an offset spatula, evenly frost the entire cake; if the frosting gets too soft, place it in the refrigerator for 15 minutes. Gently press the toasted coconut around the outside of the cake and sprinkle it over the top.
  • Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.

CHOCOLATE COCONUT BUNDT CAKE



Chocolate Coconut Bundt Cake image

I found this recipe about 25 years ago in a magazine. I realize it isn't a "from scratch" recipe, but sometimes you want something a bit out of the ordinary even though you are pressed for time. Its been a very popular dessert with my family for picnics, BBQ's, etc. and always a success at bake sales. It tastes like those chocolate covered coconut candy bars :)
