COCONUT MERINGUE CAKES
Crisp-chewy baked meringues meet cool, creamy coconut sorbet in these blushing desserts. The light-as-air disks, tinted the palest shade of pink, are made by swooping and swirling meringue on to parchment; the top layers are sprinkled with shredded coconut before baking.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 175 degrees. Line 4 baking sheets with parchment. Trace nine 3 1/2-inch circles onto each sheet. Turn parchment marked-sides down.
- Heat sugar, egg whites, and salt in a heatproof bowl set over (not in) a pan of simmering water, whisking constantly, until warm to the touch and sugar is dissolved, about 3 minutes. Remove bowl from heat. Whisk on medium-high speed until peaks are stiff and glossy, about 4 minutes. Beat in food coloring.
- Dab meringue under corners of parchment to hold in place. Spread 3 heaping tablespoons meringue within edges of each traced circle. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon coconut each over 12 of rounds.
- Bake until meringues are dry but not taking on any color and can be easily pulled off parchment, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Let cool completely on sheets on wire racks.
- Form 1/4-cup scoops of sorbet into 3-inch disks, using your hands or a small offset spatula. Place a sorbet disk on a plain meringue. Top with a second plain meringue and a second sorbet round, then end with a coconut-sprinkled round. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze, at least 5 hours and up to 1 day. Repeat with remaining meringues and sorbet.
COCONUT CAKE WITH MERINGUE FROSTING
This coconut cake with meringue frosting is as delicious as it is light and airy. The meringue frosting is a sweet treat in and of itself, and combining the coconut cake with the icing makes it even more delicious.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter two 9-by-9-by-2-inch cake pans; line bottoms with parchment paper. Butter parchment and dust with flour, tapping out excess; set aside.
- Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Place shredded coconut in bowl of a food processor; pulse until finely chopped. Stir chopped coconut into flour mixture until combined; set aside.
- Beat together butter and sugar in bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes, scraping down side of bowl as needed. Add whole eggs, egg whites, and vanilla; beat until fluffy and combined. With mixer on low, add flour mixture, alternating with coconut milk, beginning and ending with flour mixture, mixing well after each addition.
- Divide batter evenly between prepared pans; smooth with an offset spatula. Bake, rotating pans halfway through, until cakes are golden brown and a cake tester inserted into center comes out clean, about 45 to 50 minutes.
- Transfer pans to a wire rack to cool 30 minutes. Invert cakes onto rack; peel off parchment paper. Reinvert cakes and let them cool completely, top sides up, then wrap individually in plastic wrap. Transfer to freezer for 15 to 20 minutes.
- Using a serrated knife, trim tops of cake layers to make them level. Place one layer on a cake plate; spread top with 1 1/2 cups meringue. Top with remaining layer, cut side up. Using offset spatula, spread remaining frosting over entire cake, swirling to cover in a decorative fashion. Sprinkle entire cake with coconut curls, bending and curling as desired. Cake can be kept refrigerated, covered with a cake dome, up to 3 days.

When adding the meringue topping to this cake, make you you do it gently not to mix the cake batter into the meringue. This recipe was handed down to me by my mother in law.
