COCONUT LIME CAKE

Steps:

• For the Coconut Lime Cake Preheat the oven to 350 degrees, grease and flour three 8×2 inch round pans. In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, lime zest and salt for 30 seconds. Set aside In another bowl, add the buttermilk, oil and vanilla. Set aside.. In the bowl of your mixer, add the butter and mix at medium speed until smooth. Gradually add the sugar and continue to mix on medium speed for 3 to 5 minutes or until lightened in color and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time mixing until the yellow of the yolk disappears. Alternately add the flour mixture and buttermilk mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients (3 additions of dry ingredients and 2 of liquid). Do not mix above medium speed or over mix the cake batter. Bake at 350 degrees for 22 - 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with just few crumbs attached. Let cool 5 to 10 minutes and turn out. For the Lime Simple SyrupIn a saucepan over medium heat bring the water and sugar to a boil. Turn the heat to low and stir constantly until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is clear. Remove from heat and stir in the lime juice. Cool. If you want the mixture to be a thicker consistency, cook longer over low heat. Brush a small amount of the syrup onto your cake layers before you begin assembling your cake. Apply sparingly so that the cake does not become soggy. We apply while the cakes are still warm but you could also do this with the cakes at room temp just before assembling. We prefer to use a pastry brush. With lime juice added to the mixture it will last 3 to 4 days in the refrigerator. You will likely have leftover syrup. For the Lime Curd FillingCombine sugar and cornstarch in a small saucepan, pour in water. Over medium heat, stir the mixture constantly until it thickens and comes to a boil. Boil for 1 minute, remove the pan from the heat. Spoon approximately 1/4 cup of the hot mixture into a small bowl containing the egg yolk and stir quickly until combined. Pour the egg mixture back into the saucepan. Return pan to medium heat and cook, stirring constantly, approximately 1 to 2 minutes. The mixture will thicken slightly. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the butter, lime juice and lime zest. Cool before using, the curd will become thicker as it cools in the refrigerator. Can be covered and refrigerated for 5 days. *Note that we sprinkled the top of the curd with some flaked coconut. For the Coconut Cream Cheese FrostingAdd the butter to the mixing bowl and mix until smooth. Add the cream cheese that has been cut into small to medium size pieces, beating with the butter until well blended and smooth. Add the coconut and vanilla extracts Slowly add the powdered sugar, beating until smooth. Do not beat above medium speed or for too long. The longer you beat the softer the frosting becomes. If it becomes too soft to pipe, just refrigerate for a short while. Use the frosting while it is still chilled. If it becomes too soft, refrigerate until it firms up a bit or put in the freezer for 5 minutes or so to return it to a good piping consistency. Assembly Place the first layer on a cake base or pedestal. Preferably using a pastry brush, brush the top of the cake with lime simple syrup. Pipe a dam of coconut cream cheese frosting (using a piping bag with the tip snipped away). Pipe a ring of the frosting about 1/4 inch from the edge of the cake. Fill inside of the dam with the lime curd filling and sprinkle with coconut. Add the next layer and repeat. Then add the final layer, brush with the lime simple syrup, and frost the cake with coconut cream cheese frosting. As a final step, press flaked coconut all over the cake, into the frosting to cover the cake. I used a large french piping tip (8B) to pipe stars around the top edge of the cake. *Note that you may need to brush away coconut in the spots where you will pipe your stars as it is difficult to make it adhere otherwise. Gently push tiny slices of lime into the frosting stars, or add lime accents to the center of the cake.

PUT THE LIME IN THE COCONUT CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and grease and flour 2 (9-inch) cake pans.
• In an electric mixer or using a hand beater, cream butter and sugar until fluffy. Add coconut oil and eggs 1 at a time.
• In a mixing bowl or on a sheet of parchment paper, combine flour, salt, baking soda and powder. To mixer add coconut milk and flour to creamed mixture alternately, beginning and ending with flour.
• Pour batter into prepared pans and bake for 25 to 28 minutes. Allow to cool 10 minutes then unmold onto rack(s) over a sheet pan and allow to cool completely.
• For Glaze: In a medium bowl combine sour cream or yogurt, sugar, lime zest and juice, coconut milk, shredded coconut.
• With a bamboo skewer, poke holes in cake and spread glaze on both sides of both cakes. Cover with plastic wrap, chill until ready to frost cake.
• In an electric mixer or using a hand mixer beat together the butter, shortening, and cream cheese until well blended and fluffy. Add the powdered sugar gradually at low speed. Beat in coconut milk and vanilla. Frost cake. Coat top and sides with shredded coconut.

LIME IN THE COCONUT CAKE

Steps:

• Separate 2 egg whites from their yokes (we won't need these yokes in the recipe), and put the egg whites in a very clean mixing bowl.
• With a handheld or stand mixer with very clean beaters, beat the egg whites on medium speed until stiff peaks form, about 3-4 minutes.
• A quick note: when you begin beating the egg whites, they will first become a bubbly foam, but after 3-4 minutes the egg whites will get really light and fluffy-like clouds-and stiff peaks will form. You know the peaks are stiff enough if when you take your egg beaters out of the egg whites, the peaks hold their shape and kind of lift out of the bowl with the egg beaters. (Check out my Chiffon Cake Recipe for photo reference!)
• Set aside, and proceed quickly with the following steps.
• In a medium sized mixing bowl, use a handheld or stand mixer to cream together the oil, melted butter, sugar, vanilla extract, lime extract, and lime zest until well combined, about one minute.
• Now add the egg. Beat with your mixer until combined.
• Now add in the milk, and again mix until the milk is completely incorporated.
• Add the flour, coconut, salt, baking powder, and baking soda to the other ingredients, and mix with your handheld/stand mixer until smooth and combined, but don't over mix!
• Now fold in the egg whites with a silicon spatula (see photos in my Chiffon Cake recipe for folding technique.) You want to completely combine the egg whites into the cake batter, but fold softly so as not to deflate them.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• If using the Nordic Ware bundlette pan (I highly recommend!!!), oil the pan well, and fill each bundtlette cavity about 3/4 of the way full. You will have just about 3/4 cup of batter left over. I use a little 8 oz ramekin for the remaining batter, and I bake the ramekin alongside the bundtlettes.
• Bake for 21-23 minutes, until the cakes are mostly firm to the touch-there will be a slight jiggle. Don't overbake!
• Let the bundtlettes cool for 10 minutes, then carefully take them out of the pan. I like to use a butter knife to help loosen the cakes a little bit, if necessary, then I carefully use my hands to pull each cake out.
• If not using the Nordicware bundtlette pan, pour the cake batter into an oiled 8x8 inch or 9x9 inch pan.
• Bake for 30-35 minutes, until the cake is mostly firm on top-there will be a slight jiggle-and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out mostly clean.
• While the cakes cool a bit, make the icing.
• In a medium sized bowl, add 1 2/3 cup powdered sugar, lime zest, lime extract lime juice, and salt.
• Mix it altogether with a fork until smooth. You want the icing to be thick enough that it doesn't pour easily. We'll drizzle the icing over the cakes, and if it's too thin, the icing won't stay where it's drizzled.
• If the icing is too runny at this point, add 1 Tbsp more powdered sugar. If it's still too runny, add 1 more Tbsp of powdered sugar.
• After you've removed the bundtlettes from the pan, ice them while they're still slightly warm.
• I like to dip a butter knife in the icing, and drizzle it over the top of the cakes, but feel free to get creative, and use as much or as little icing as desired.
• Serve the cakes alone or with a nice cup of almond milk. Enjoy!

COCONUT CAKE WITH LIME CURD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Line bottoms of three buttered 9- by 2-inch round cake pans with rounds of wax paper or parchment paper and butter paper. Dust pans with flour, knocking out excess.
• In a bowl whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. In a glass measure stir together milk, coconut liquid or water, and vanilla. In a large bowl with an electric mixer beat butter on medium speed 1 minute and add sugar in a slow stream, beating. Beat mixture scraping bowl occasionally, until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Reduce speed to low and beat in flour mixture in 4 batches alternately with milk mixture, beginning and ending with flour mixture and scraping bowl occasionally, until batter is just combined (do not overbeat).
• Divide batter among pans, smoothing tops and tapping pans on counter to allow any air bubbles to escape. Bake cake layers in middle and lower thirds of oven (arrange pans so they overlap only slightly) until a tester inserted in center comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Run a thin knife around edges of pans and invert cake layers onto racks. Remove wax paper carefully and cool cake layers completely. Cake layers may be made 1 day ahead and kept, wrapped in plastic wrap, in an airtight container in a cool dry place. (Alternatively, cake layers may be made 5 days ahead and frozen wrapped in plastic wrap and foil. Thaw cake layers in refrigerator 1 day before proceeding.)
• In a heavy saucepan whisk together yolks, sugar, lime juice, cream, and butter and cook over moderately low heat, whisking constantly, 5 to 7 minutes, or until mixture just reaches a boil (do not let boil). Strain curd through a fine sieve into a bowl and stir in zest. Cool curd its surface covered with plastic wrap, and chill at least 4 hours and up to 2 days.
• Put 1 cake layer on a cake plate and spread evenly with about half of lime curd. Sprinkle with 1/2 cup shredded fresh or sweetened flaked coconut and chill 15 minutes. Repeat layering in same manner with another cake layer, remaining lime curd, and remaining 1/2 cup coconut and top with remaining cake layer. Chill cake 15 minutes.
• In top of a double boiler off heat or in a large metal bowl with a hand-held electric mixer beat together frosting ingredients until combined. In double boiler or in bowl set over a saucepan of boiling water beat mixture on high speed until it holds stiff glossy peaks, about 7 minutes. (Depending on mixer and weather, this may take longer.) Remove top of double boiler or bowl from heat and beat frosting until cool and spreadable.
• Frost cake and coat with shaved fresh or sweetened flaked coconut.
• Pierce softest eye of each coconut with a metal skewer or small screwdriver and working over a bowl shake coconut, draining liquid and reserving coconut for shredding or shaving (procedure follows). Makes about a scant 3/4 cup liquid.
• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Bake reserved drained coconuts in oven 15 minutes
• With a hammer or back of a heavy cleaver, break shells and remove meat, levering it out carefully with point of a strong knife or small screwdriver. Remove brown membrane with a sharp paring knife or vegetable peeler.
• In a food processor fitted with fine shredding blade shred coconut meat from about 1 coconut in batches or shred by hand on fine shredding side (small tear-shaped holes) of a 4 sided grater until you have about 1 cup, reserving remaining coconut meat for another use.
• With a vegetable peeler shave edges of coconut meat pieces until you have about 3 1/2 cups, reserving remaining coconut meat for another use. Coconuts may be shredded or shaved 1 day ahead and chilled in a sealable plastic bag.
