coconut cake recipe
something delicious
Courtesy of the sweet queens at Co.Bake, here's a super simple but incredibly delicious coconut cake recipe you'll want in your repertoire.
INGREDIENTS
250g butter
300g caster sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
4 eggs
300g self raising flour
80g coconut
1 cup milk
4-5 cups icing sugar
1 tsp vanila bean paste
1/4 cup boiling water
Toasted coconut
METHOD
- Preheat your oven to 140°C fan-forced. 160°C conventional.
Grease a 22cm springform tin (not a bundt tin, for goodness' sake) with butter and greaseproof paper. - Beat butter, sugar and vanilla with an electric beater until light and fluffy and pale. Gradually add eggs one at a time.
- Add the flour, coconut and milk in two batches and continue to beat. Once incorporated, pour into your pre-prepared tin.
- Bake in the oven for 50-55mins. Test with a skewer and when it comes out cleanly, you're ready!
- Allow the cake to sit in the tin for about 20 mins before turning out to cool.
- For the icing, sift icing sugar into a bowl. Mix vanilla bean paste and boiling water in a jug and mix with icing sugar. If it's super, super runny add some more sugar but otherwise whisk so smooth. Pour over cooled cake and top with toasted coconut.
