COCONUT CLOUD CAKE



Coconut Cloud Cake image

This light, flavorful dessert, filled and topped with seven-minute frosting and coconut, is a little slice of heaven.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cake Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 large egg whites
1 1/4 cups sugar
5 tablespoons cold water
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup sifted cake flour
1 1/2 cups superfine sugar
14 large egg whites (1 3/4 cups), room temperature
1 tablespoon warm water
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons cream of tartar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 to 4 cups flaked coconut

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. With a fine sieve, sift together flour and 3/4 cups sugar four times.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer on medium speed, beat together egg whites and water until foamy. Add salt, cream of tartar, and vanilla; beat until soft peaks form. Increase speed to medium-high and sprinkle in remaining sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time. Beat until stiff but not dry.
  • Transfer to a large bowl. In six additions, sift dry ingredients over meringue, folding in quickly but gently.
  • Pour batter into an ungreased 10-inch tube pan with removable bottom. Smooth top with an offset spatula. Run a knife through batter to release air bubbles. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until golden brown and springy to touch.
  • Invert pan on its legs or over the neck of a glass bottle, and let cool completely, about 1 hour.
  • Make the frosting: In the heatproof bowl of an electric mixer set over a saucepan of simmering water, combine egg whites, sugar, water, and cream of tartar. Cook over medium heat, whisking frequently, until sugar is dissolved and mixture is foamy, about 5 minutes.
  • Attach the bowl to a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Beat the mixture on high speed until glossy and voluminous, about 7 minutes. Beat in the vanilla.
  • Carefully run a long offset spatula or knife around the inner and outer perimeter of the cake pan to release cake.
  • Place on a plate, bottom side up. Using a long serrated knife, carefully slice off 1 1/2 inches from the top of the cake, being sure not to break the layer. Set aside. Cut out a 1-inch-wide, 1-inch-deep channel halfway between the center and edge of cake. Spread icing into channel and over entire layer. Sprinkle with coconut.
  • Gently place reserved layer on top and ice with remaining frosting. Sprinkle with coconut and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Make sure all of your ingredients are at room temperature before you start baking. This will help the cake to rise evenly and prevent it from becoming dense.
  • Use a kitchen scale to measure your ingredients. This will ensure that you are using the correct amount of each ingredient and that your cake turns out perfectly.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough and dense.
  • Bake the cake at the correct temperature and for the correct amount of time. Check the cake for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center. If the toothpick comes out clean, the cake is done.
  • Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting to set properly and prevent it from melting.
  • If you are using a store-bought angel food cake mix, be sure to follow the instructions on the package.

Conclusion:

Angel cloud cake is a light, fluffy, and delicious cake that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized with a variety of flavors and frostings. Whether you are a beginner baker or an experienced pro, you are sure to love this recipe.
