ITALIAN FOUR-LAYER COCONUT CREAM CAKE
You will get a lot of compliments with this cake. It is so good, even if you don't like coconut. This is a four-layer cake with walnuts and coconut in the batter, a cream cheese frosting, and more coconut between each layer and on the top.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour four 9-inch round cake pans.
- Combine sugar, butter, shortening, and egg yolks in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Mix in sifted flour, coconut, buttermilk, walnuts, baking soda, and vanilla extract.
- Beat egg whites in a glass, metal, or ceramic bowl just until stiff peaks form. Fold into the cake batter. Divide batter among the prepared cake pans.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Run a table knife around the edges to loosen. Invert carefully onto a serving plate or cooling rack. Let cool, about 30 minutes.
- While the cakes are cooling, combine cream cheese, butter, and vanilla extract for the icing in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Gradually mix in powdered sugar until combined.
- Spread icing on the top of each cake and sprinkle with coconut. Stack cakes to make four layers, inserting toothpicks or wooden skewers vertically to keep the cake together. Spread remaining icing on the top and sides and sprinkle with more coconut.

Steps:
- For the cake: Position racks in the middle and lower third of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Butter three 9-inch round cake pans and line the bottoms with parchment paper; butter the parchment, dust with flour and tap out the excess. Set aside.
- Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk the buttermilk and cream of coconut in a small bowl. Beat the butter and 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Add the egg yolks, one at a time, beating well after each addition, then beat in the vanilla and coconut extracts. Reduce the mixer speed to low; beat in the flour mixture in three batches, alternating with the buttermilk mixture, until combined.
- Beat the egg whites and the remaining 1/2 cup granulated sugar in a large bowl with clean beaters on medium-high speed until stiff glossy peaks form, 4 to 5 minutes. Using a rubber spatula, fold the egg whites into the batter in three batches until just combined (do not overmix). Divide the batter among the prepared pans and bake, switching the pans halfway through, until the cakes are lightly browned and the centers spring back when lightly pressed, 30 to 35 minutes. Transfer to racks and let cool 20 minutes in the pans, then run a small knife around the edges of each cake and carefully invert onto the racks; remove the parchment and let cool completely.
- For the frosting: Beat the butter and cream cheese in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until smooth, about 2 minutes. Reduce the mixer speed to low and beat in about half of the confectioners' sugar until combined. Add the remaining confectioners' sugar, salt and vanilla and coconut extracts and beat until combined. Increase the mixer speed to medium high and continue beating, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed, until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
- Place one cake layer on a cake stand or platter and top with a heaping 2/3 cup frosting. Add another cake layer, more frosting and the last cake layer. Cover the top and sides of the cake with the remaining frosting. Sprinkle the coconut all over the top and sides of the cake, gently pressing to adhere.
