A delightful coconut cake that combines creamy butter, fluffy eggs, and sweet shredded coconut for a moist and tropical treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup milk
  • 3 large eggs
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a cake pan, ensuring it’s well-coated to prevent any sticking.
  2. Cream the softened butter and sugar together until fluffy and light in color.
  3. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.
  4. Combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt in another bowl.
  5. Gradually add the flour mixture to your creamed mixture, alternating with the milk.
  6. Fold in the unsweetened shredded coconut.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  8. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  9. Once baked, let your cake cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring it to a wire rack.

Notes

Serve plain or with frosting. Pairs well with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream and fresh fruit.
