CHOCOLATE CAKE WITH RASPBERRY & COCONUT FILLING



Chocolate Cake with Raspberry & Coconut Filling image

This is a terrific chocolate cake by itself. But the raspberry coconut filling is what really makes it special at our house! It really presents nicely with the raspberry/coconut on the sides. The frosting recipe yields 4 cups. Either cut it down or make cupcakes using the same cake recipe to use it up.

RASPBERRY COCONUT CAKE WITH WHITE CHOCOLATE ICING



Raspberry Coconut Cake With White Chocolate Icing image

I made this cake from a vision, lol. I have seen these things called "Dream Bars" up on this site that have raspberry and coconut flavors mixed in them, and I just couldn't help but want to make a cake that had the same flavorings. When I first made it, I was really nervous when I took it out of the oven because it began to fall, but little did I know that it had turning into an incredibly moist, sponge-like cake. It soaks up the raspberry jam and takes up the flavor and color of it. It is really a pretty cake, and very tasty I might add. I hope you enjoy it!
