COCONUT COCONUT MILK CAKE



Coconut Coconut Milk Cake image

This is a super moist and tasty coconut cake. Growing up in Brazil, this was a favorite amongst our circle of friends. It is especially good with a cup of coffee on the side. I've converted a few of my anti-coconut family and friends into lovers of this cake.

Time 1h

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups white sugar
1 cup butter, softened
4 eggs, separated
1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 (14 ounce) can coconut milk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch cake pan.
  • Beat sugar, butter, and egg yolks together in a bowl using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy; add shredded coconut.
  • Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl. Stir creamed butter mixture, alternating with coconut milk, into flour mixture until batter is just mixed.
  • Beat egg whites in a glass or metal bowl until until soft peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites will form soft mounds rather than a sharp peak. Fold egg whites into batter. Pour batter into the prepared cake pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean, about 45 minutes.

COCONUT POUND CAKE (USING COCONUT MILK)



Coconut Pound Cake (Using Coconut Milk) image

I was looking online for a coconut pound cake that used coconut milk and came across one that was similar to the one that I wanted. However, I made quite a few changes and I believe that it has been perfected :-) This pound cake has a wonderfully rich coconut flavor b/c it uses coconut milk. The coconut milk and coconut are both un-sweetened, so you may add a little more sugar if you'd like, but this recipe is great even if you don't have a "sweet tooth". ADDITIONAL NOTES: After readin some of the reviews, I tried this same recipe and added a "Brown suger Toasted Coconut Glaze". It makes it even better. See below

MUNG BEAN CAKE WITH COCONUT MILK



Mung Bean Cake With Coconut Milk image

I found this recipe years ago, but don't remember where. I have made it a few times to accompany an Asian meal, and it has always been well-received. Don't let the shallots scare you off. They are quite sweet tasting when browned, like caramelized onions. Mung beans can be found in Asian markets, or Asian sections of larger supermarkets. This is a very dense, moist cake.

COCONUT MILK CAKE



Coconut Milk Cake image

This cake originally required breaking open a coconut or two, grating the meat and extracting the milk. Thank goodness for at least some of today's processed foods!
