• Beat the 2 tablespoons butter with 1/2 cup sugar in a large bowl until creamy, using a handheld electric mixer. Beat in the flour, then the egg yolks, limeade concentrate, coconut milk, and salt. (For the airiest egg whites, clean the beaters thoroughly so none of this mixture is left on them.) In another medium bowl whip the egg whites until they form soft peaks. While whipping, slowly pour in the remaining 1/4 cup granulated sugar and continue beating until the whites hold stiff, glossy peaks. Fold a quarter of the whites into the coconut-lime mixture, then fold in the remaining whites.

HOLIDAY PISTACHIO AND COCONUT PUDDING CAKE

Steps:

• Shred the coconut flakes finer by putting them in a Cuisinart for a couple of minutes. Melt the coconut oil. The coconut oil comes in a jar and can be found near the other oils in the grocery store. Just scoop out the amount you need into a microwave safe bowl, and then microwave it for a minute or so to melt it.
• Mix the cake mix, soda, eggs, pudding mix, melted coconut oil and finely shredded coconut in a mixer on low speed until combined. Mix an additional 3 minutes on medium speed.
• Oil the bottom and sides of two standard round cake pans. Divide the thick cake batter evenly between the two, smoothing out the batter on top. Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
• After the cakes have been out of the oven for 15 minutes, remove them from the pans and let them cool on cooling racks.
• While the cakes are cooking, make the frosting. Mix the cream cheese in a mixer for 2-4 minutes until it is fluffy and light. Add the powdered sugar and pudding mix and continue to mix for another minute until combined. Add the milk and mix until creamy about one minute.
• Fold the Cool Whip into the cream cheese mixture using a large spoon.
• Put one cake layer down and add 1/3 of the frosting on top of it. Smooth evenly. Add the second layer of cake and frost the cake with the remaining 2/3 of the frosting. Sprinkle the top with the chopped pistachios.

CHOCOLATE PUDDING CAKE WITH COCONUT ICE CREAM

Steps:

• For the ice cream: Prepare an ice water bath. Bring the cream and coconut milk to a boil in a medium saucepan. Whisk together the egg yolks and sugar in a bowl; slowly pour in some of the hot cream to temper the yolks. Pour the eggs into the cream mixture and cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the custard coats the back of a spoon and steam rises from the top. Strain the custard through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean bowl and cool over the ice water bath, stirring occasionally, until the custard is chilled. Process the custard in an ice cream machine. Fold in the toasted coconut and keep the ice cream frozen until ready to use.
• For the pudding cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line an 8-inch square pan with plastic wrap. Whisk together the flour, 3/4 cup of the brown sugar, 1/4 cup of the cocoa powder, and the baking powder. Fold in the cream and pour the batter into the plastic-lined pan. Mix the remaining 3/4 cup brown sugar and 1/4 cup cocoa powder together and sprinkle over the top of the batter. Bring the coconut water to a boil and pour over the cake batter. Place the cake pan in a large roasting pan; pour enough water into the roasting pan to come 1-inch up the side of the cake pan. Bake the cake in the water bath for 50 minutes. Cool the cake to room temperature and invert it onto a sheet pan. Carefully pull away the plastic wrap. There should be a gooey pudding-like substance on the bottom of the cake. Using a 4-inch diameter ring cutter, cut 4 portions from the cake. Clean the ring cutter before each cut.
• For the emulsion: Warm the coconut milk and sugar in a small saucepan. Just prior to use, froth with a handheld blender.
• Assembly: Place a piece of the pudding cake in the center of each plate. Spoon the frothy portion of the emulsion around the pudding cakes. Place a quenelle-shaped scoop of the ice cream next to the cake and sprinkle the toasted coconut, coquito nuts, and crystallized ginger over the ice cream and around the cake.
