COCONUT MUG CAKE WITH COCONUT WHIPPED CREAM AND TROPICAL FRUIT
Steps:
- For the coconut cake and tropical fruit salad: Scatter the sweetened flake coconut over a microwave-safe dinner plate and toast in the microwave for 2 minutes. Stir the coconut flakes and microwave until golden, an additional 1 to 2 minutes.
- While the coconut flakes toast, mix together the strawberries, mango, kiwi, honey, lime juice and 1/4 teaspoon of the lime zest in a medium bowl.
- In another medium bowl, mix together the melted butter, beaten egg, vanilla extract, cream of coconut and sour cream thoroughly. Mix in the flour until smooth. Mix in most of the toasted coconut flakes, setting aside 1 tablespoon for garnish.
- Butter two 10-ounce mugs (I keep old butter wrappers in the fridge exactly for this purpose). Lightly dust the bottoms and sides with flour. Split the cake batter evenly between the mugs. Microwave each cake until the center springs back to the touch, 2 to 2 1/2 minutes.
- For the coconut whipped cream: While the cakes cook, whip the heavy cream to soft peaks. Add the cream of coconut and whip to stiff peaks.
- Top the cakes with the coconut whipped cream, fruit salad and remaining 1 tablespoon toasted coconut flakes and 1/4 teaspoon lime zest. Buen provecho!

COCONUT POUND CAKE WITH LIME GLAZE
This pound cake is the best! Oven temps will vary, so if the cake is not done after 1 hour and 20 minutes, continue baking in 5-minute intervals. Use fresh, not bottled, lime juice for the glaze. -Jo McFarland, Sterling, Virginia

Tips:
- Make sure to use fresh limes for the best flavor. Bottled lime juice will not provide the same zest and aroma.
- If you don't have coconut milk on hand, you can use unsweetened almond milk or regular milk. However, coconut milk will give the cake a richer flavor and texture.
- If you want a sweeter cake, you can add an extra tablespoon of sugar. You can also drizzle the finished cake with honey or maple syrup.
- Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough.
- Cook the cake for the full amount of time, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool for a few minutes before eating. This will help it to set and firm up.
