LEMON CAKE WITH COCONUT ICING
A version of this golden, tart-sweet confection was served at the 76th birthday of the legendary Southern chef, Edna Lewis. It is a true labor of love, so be sure to set aside a full afternoon to make it; this is not the sort of cake you want to rush.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease three 9-inch cake pans with butter and dust with flour.
- Bake the cake: In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, salt and baking powder and set aside. In a small bowl, combine the milk and vanilla and set aside.
- Using a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter. Add the sugar and beat until light and fluffy. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, and beat in the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add a third of the flour mixture, then half the milk mixture in alternating additions, mixing in between just enough to incorporate, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl as necessary.
- Divide the batter among the prepared pans and smooth the tops. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes. The cakes should be barely done in the middle. Cool 5 minutes in the pans, then unmold onto wire racks to cool.
- To make the lemon curd: In a medium saucepan combine the sugar, flour and cornstarch. In a bowl whisk together the lemon zest, lemon juice and 1 cup of water. Beat in the eggs. Slowly whisk the lemon mixture into the sugar mixture. Cook over medium heat, slowly whisking until the mixture thickens. Remove from the heat and stir in the butter. Set aside to cool, then refrigerate until ready to use. (This can be made several days ahead.)
- Make the icing: In a small saucepan, combine the sugar with 1/2 cup cold water and bring to a boil over high heat without stirring. Boil for 2 to 3 minutes. Dip a spoon into the syrup and let it drip off. When a 2- to 3-inch thread hangs off, remove from heat. Meanwhile, change the mixer attachment to the whisk attachment and beat the egg whites on medium speed until they hold their shape, about 2 minutes. With the mixer running, slowly add in the syrup in a steady stream. Increase the speed and beat the mixture until firm, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add the vanilla and whisk briefly to combine. Set aside.
- To assemble: Place 1 cake layer on a serving platter. Spread half the lemon curd on top, but do not let it spill down the sides. Repeat with the second layer, then top with the third cake. Spread the icing on the top and sides, then cover it with the coconut, pressing it in on the sides with the palms of your hands.

SIX-LAYER COCONUT CAKE WITH LEMON FILLING
I found this recipe when going through my grandmother's old files. It was originally made with an orange filling, but using lemon pudding in the filling makes it easier to prepare. It is simply the best. -Angela Leinenbach, Mechanicsvlle, Virginia

COCONUT LAYER CAKE WITH LEMON FILLING AND MARSHMALLOW-LIKE FROST
I LOVE this recipe so much.. make it for a party or birthday when you want to WOW your guests. I hope that you enjoy making this, I know I did!! Not a beginner recipe but a great one to have your kids assist you with the filling or frosting! Originally found in "The Summer Book" by Susan Branch. Make sure you have a double boiler for the filling and a candy thermometer for the frosting! NOTE: I made four 8" layer cakes by doubling the recipe, rather than using one batch to make three 8" layer cakes. Be generous!

- Add egg tolks and beat until thick and lemon colored.
- With a fork, mix together dry ingredients.
- Add dry ingredients alternately with the milk.
- Stir in vanilla.

- Bake at 350° for 20 minutes.
- Cool completely and remove from pans.
- Freeze if time permits.
- Before filling and frosting, cut off rough edges of cake with sharp scissors.
- To Make The Lemon Filling:.
- When grating rind take special care to not get the bitter white part.
- Put all ingredients in a double boiler.
- Stir over simmering water until thickened (approximately 15-20 minutes).
- Chill.
- To Make The Marshmallow-Like Frosting:.
- Stir the water, sugar, cream of tartar and salt together in a small heavy-bottomed pan.
- Hook a candy thermometer to the edge of the pan and boil without stirring until the mixture reaches 240°F.
- Meanwhile, beat egg whites until stiff.
- Pour the 240° syrup over the egg whites in a thin stream, beating constantly until thick and glossy.
- To Assemble: Remove cake layers from freezer.
- Spread the chilled filling between the layers, trying to not let much of it get out the sides.
- Frost the cake with the marshmallow-like frosting and sprinkle coconut on thickly, gently pressing it into the sides.
- If the cake slips around, gently slide it back straight.
- Decorate top with a flower or group of leaves. I use three strawberry leaves and a flower set in the center.
- Can be refrigerated.
