COCONUT FLUFF CAKE RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Steps:

• Pour into two, greased and floured, 8-inch square layer cake pans or two 9-inch round layer cake pans. Bake in preheated moderate oven (350° F.) for 35-40 minutes. Cool in pans on a wire rack for about 10 minutes then loosen sides with a thin knife and remove cakes to rack to cool completely before frosting. NOTES: My recipe modifications were: I used 1/2 c. shortening and 1/2 stick unsalted butter. I used 1% milk. I used 1 whole egg and enough egg whites to measure 2/3 cup. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Below is the 7-Minute Frosting recipe I used but I ran out before finishing the cake, so you might need to spread it thinner, or increase the ingredient amounts. NOTE: The cake needs to be completely cooled before it can be frosted so don't start making the frosting until it is. 7-Minute Frosting (simple syrup recipe) 1 cup water 1 cup granulated sugar 3 extra-large egg whites 1/3 teaspoon cream of tartar Pinch salt 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Preheat a small stove burner on medium-high heat. While it's preheating, add the water to a small, heavy 1-quart saucepan; add the sugar BUT do not stir it. Place on the preheated burner and cook, undisturbed, until it reaches soft-ball stage, or 238 degrees on candy thermometer. (This may take 20-25 minutes). When the syrup is almost done, place the egg whites, cream of tartar, and salt in a large mixing bowl and beat on high speed of hand mixer until soft peaks form. (This only took about 1 minute). Set aside until the syrup has finished cooking. Pouring in a very thin stream, a little at a time, beat the hot syrup on high speed of mixer into the egg white mixture over a total of 3-4 minutes, beating constantly. Beat in the vanilla and continue beating on high speed until it holds together well and forms firm peaks, 5-7 more minutes. Immediately spread frosting over cooled layers of cake. Sprinkle shredded coconut over frosting.
