Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly coat one 9-inch round cake pan or two 6-inch round cake pans with nonstick spray. Line the bottom(s) with parchment paper, then lightly coat again. Set aside.
- In a large, microwave-safe bowl, melt the coconut oil for 30 seconds. Continue to heat in 15-second bursts, stopping as soon as it liquifies. Set aside to cool to room temperature.
- In a separate large mixing bowl, sift together coconut flour, baking soda, and salt. Do not skip the sifting-it's key to giving the cake a lighter texture.
- To the bowl with the room-temperature coconut oil, add the eggs, egg whites, honey, vanilla extract, almond extract, and coconut milk. (If, when you open your can of coconut milk, the cream and liquid are separated pour the contents of the can into a separate mixing bowl or large measuring cup and whisk to smoothly recombine before measuring out 1/2 cup. Learn from my mistakes and do not try to stir it together in the open can or you will have a liquidy mess running down the can and onto your counter.) Whisk until the wet ingredients are very well blended and no streaks of eggs remain.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and whisk to combine. The coconut flour will form large lumps at first, but just keep on whisking and consider this your arm workout for the day. Stop stirring when the flour lumps are small (about the size of sprinkles). With a rubber spatula, fold in the lemon zest. (I like to zest the lemon directly into the bowl.) Pour the cake into the prepared pan and, with the back of the spatula, smooth the top. (If using two pans, make sure to evenly divide the batter between each.)
- Bake for 28 to 32 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into center of the cake comes out clean, the cake is deeply golden at the edges, and the center springs back lightly when touched. Place the pan(s) on a wire rack and let cool in the pan(s) completely.
- While the cake cools, prepare the frosting: In a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the softened butter on medium speed until light and fluffy. Add the vanilla and salt and mix once more until blended.
- Add 1/2 cup of the powdered sugar. Mix it in on low speed. Continue adding the next 1 1/2 cups of powdered sugar a little at a time until it is decently incorporated (if you add it too quickly, you'll end up with a big cloud of sugar that billows out of the bowl). If at any point the mixture becomes dry and crumbly, add a little of the coconut milk as needed to begin thinning it. Add the rest of the 3 tablespoons coconut milk. Increase the speed to medium high and beat for a full 2 to 3 minutes, until fluffy. Scrape down the sides as needed. If the frosting seems too thick, add coconut milk 1 to 2 teaspoons at a time to thin it. If you would like the froster thicker, continue adding the remaining 1 cup additional powdered sugar until you reach your desired consistency.
- If making a single layer cake: Once the cake has cooled, transfer it to a serving plate, with the flat bottom-side down. If making a two-layer cake, place the first layer domed top-side down-if the dome is very high and the cake seems wobbly, you can level it first. Tucks strips of wax paper underneath the bottom of the cake to protect the plate. Spread the frosting all over the top of the cake (if adding a second layer, place it flat-side down, dome-side up). Continue frosting, swirling frosting over the top and down the sides of the cake. Decorate as desired. Slice and serve!

4 DAY REFRIGERATED COCONUT CAKE
This is an ideal cake to take to a church or family reunion or any type of gathering. You need to make it four days in advance so it has time to "marry" so don't cheat. LOL ***I have also made this with chocolate layers rather than yellow and it's good either way. I'll bet it's also good with red velvet cake layers, too. It's...

Steps:
- 1. DAY ONE: Remove frozen coconut from freezer and lay out on counter so it can slowly thaw. I do this first thing in the morning. Later in the afternoon mix the sour cream and sugar really well. Add in the coconut and combine well. Cover and let stand in refrigerator overnight.
- 2. DAY TWO: Prepare and bake two round cake layers as per box directions. Completely cool layers then cut each layer into half by using dental floss or a bread knife, making four layers. Generously ice between each layer then top and sides of cake. The icing normally doesn't stick to the sides but if you'll keep spooning the icing that puddles in the bottom of the cake plate, some will end up staying on the sides. You can also poke holes in the layers if you want. I do this sometimes but not always. Cover in an airtight cake plate and refrigerate.
- 3. DAY THREE: Don't you dare cut this cake! I'm watching you!!!
- 4. DAY FOUR: Enjoy this wonderful and refreshing cake but keep refrigerated. ~~~smiles~~~
- 5. * It just gets better the older it is. Please try it with chocolate or red velvet layers, too.
- 6. ***FROZEN COCONUT CAN BE FOUND IN THE FREEZER SECTION IN MOST MAJOR GROCERY STORES AND WALMART.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Grease three 9-inch cake pans, line with parchment paper, then grease the parchment paper. Parchment paper helps the cakes seamlessly release from the pans.
- Whisk the cake flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together. Set aside.
- Using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle or whisk attachment, beat the butter and sugar together on medium-high speed until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes. Scrape down the sides and up the bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed. Beat in the egg whites until combined, then add the sour cream, vanilla extract, and coconut extract. Beat until combined. Mixture will look curdled as a result of the varying textures and solid butter combining. Scrape down the sides and up the bottom of the bowl as needed. With the mixer on low speed, slowly add the dry ingredients and coconut milk. Beat on low speed until combined, then add the shredded coconut. Whisk it all by hand to make sure there are no butter lumps at the bottom of the bowl. The batter will be slightly thick.
- Pour batter evenly into cake pans. Weigh them to ensure accuracy, if desired. Bake for around 21-23 minutes or until the cakes are baked through. To test for doneness, insert a toothpick into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean, it's done. Allow cakes to cool completely in the pans set on a wire rack. The cakes must be completely cool before frosting and assembling.
- In a large bowl using a hand-held mixer or stand mixer fitted with a whisk or paddle attachment, beat the butter and cream cheese together on medium speed until creamy and smooth, about 2 minutes. Add confectioners' sugar, coconut milk, vanilla extract, coconut extract, and salt with the mixer running on low. Increase to high speed and beat for 3 minutes. Add more confectioners' sugar if frosting is too thin, more coconut milk if frosting is too thick, or an extra pinch of salt if frosting is too sweet.
- Using a large serrated knife, slice a thin layer off the tops of the cakes to create a flat surface. Discard (or crumble over ice cream!). Place 1 cake layer on your cake stand, cake turntable, or serving plate. Evenly cover the top with about 1 and 1/2 cups of frosting. Top with 2nd cake layer and evenly cover the top with about 1 and 1/2 cups of frosting. Top with the third cake layer. Spread the remaining frosting all over the top and sides. I use and recommend an icing spatula to apply the frosting and bench scraper to smooth the sides. Sprinkle coconut on top of the cake and apply it to the sides. This can get a little messy and you can watch me do it in the video tutorial above. See blog post above about buttercream rose decoration.
- Refrigerate cake for at least 20 minutes before slicing. This helps the cake hold its shape when cutting, though it's still a pretty fluffy cake!
- Cover leftover cake tightly and store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
