COCONUT-RUM CAKE WITH LEMON CURD AND WHITE CHOCOLATE GANACHE
A subtle lemon-coconut-rum cake with fantastic fillings and topped with a white chocolate ganache. Perfect for a special occasion. I received this recipe from a retired baker. All the measurements were in "baker's speak". Here is my version for the home cook.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and lightly flour three 9-inch metal cake pans.
- Sift cake flour, baking powder, and salt for cake into a bowl and set aside. Whisk eggs, coconut milk, heavy cream, and vanilla extract together in a small bowl until well combined.
- Cream sugar and butter together in a large bowl until light and fluffy, scraping down as needed. Add 1/3 of the flour mixture and mix on low speed until incorporated. Add 1/2 of the milk mixture and mix on low until evenly incorporated. Repeat, ending with remaining flour mixture, scraping down the bowl after each addition and mixing at medium speed until well incorporated, about 1 minute. Evenly split batter among the prepared cake pans.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and cakes are starting to pull away from the sides of the pans, 30 to 40 minutes. Allow to cool in the pans for 5 to 10 minutes; invert onto a cooling rack to cool completely, about 30 minutes.
- While cakes cool, make lemon curd. Mix sugar and cornstarch well in a small bowl and set aside. Whisk whole eggs and egg yolks together in a small bowl and set aside.
- Heat lemon juice and zest in a small saucepan over medium-low heat until hot. Add sugar and cornstarch mixture all at once. Bring back to a simmer, stirring constantly. Whisk some of the hot lemon mixture into the eggs to temper them. Pour back into the saucepan. Cook, stirring constantly, until thick, 5 to 10 minutes.
- Remove curd from heat and add butter. Mix until smooth. Strain curd if necessary and place in a small bowl. Press plastic wrap against the surface and chill, at least 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, make pastry cream. Mix sugar and cornstarch together in a small bowl. Whisk egg and egg yolk together in a small bowl until well mixed.
- Heat coconut milk in a small saucepan until simmering. Add sugar-cornstarch mixture and whisk until smooth and sugar is melted. Whisk some of the hot milk into the eggs to temper them. Pour back into the saucepan and cook, stirring constantly, until thickened, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Remove pastry cream from heat and stir in butter and coconut rum; mix until smooth. Strain if necessary, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until cold, about 20 minutes.
- For the simple syrup, bring sugar, water, and rum to a boil in a medium saucepan. Boil for 1 minute. Remove from heat and allow to cool, 15 to 20 minutes.
- For the ganache, combine heavy cream, butter, corn syrup, and rum in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer. Pour hot cream mixture over chocolate and let sit for 5 to 10 minutes. Mix until smooth. Allow to cool to lukewarm, 5 to 10 minutes.
- Trim tops of cake layers to be flat, if needed. Place 1 cooled cake layer onto a serving plate. Brush with 1/2 of the simple syrup. Cover with 1/2 of the pastry cream. Drop spoonfuls of lemon curd on top and smooth out carefully. Repeat with a second layer and remaining syrup, pastry cream, and curd. Carefully place the third cake layer on top. Frost the entire cake with ganache and sprinkle toasted coconut over the sides and top.

COCONUT CAKE WITH GANACHE
I've seen recipes for coconut cake imitating Almond Joy candy. I thought a cake like a Mounds candy bar would be delicious. This is what I ended up making for our son's 26th birthday! The coconut flavor is very slight. You could add more coconut between the layers or even stir into the batter. The cake is extremely moist.

Steps:
- 1. PREHEAT OVEN TO 350 DEGREES. GREASE AND FLOUR THREE 8 OR 9 INCH ROUND CAKE PANS.
- 2. MAKE CAKE:IN A LARGE BOWL MIX EGGS, OIL, SOUR CREAM AND 3/4 CUP OF CREAM OF COCONUT. ADD CAKE MIX AND BEAT ON LOW WITH A HAND MIXER 30 SECONDS UNTIL INGREDIENTS ARE MOISTENED. INCREASE SPEED TO MEDIUM AND BEAT FOR 2 MINUTES. DIVIDE EVENLY AND POUR INTO THE 3 CAKE PANS.
- 3. BAKE IN PREHEATED OVEN FOR APPROXIMATELY 20-30 MINUTES, UNTIL EVENLY BROWNED AND THE CAKE HAS STARTED TO PULL AWAY FROM THE EDGE AND THE CAKE SPRINGS BACK WHEN LIGHTLY TOUCHED IN THE CENTER. REMOVE AND COOL ON WIRE RACKS FOR 10-15 MINUTES. THEN INVERT ONTO CAKE RACKS AND COOL COMPLETELY.
- 4. MAKE GANACHE:WHILE CAKE IS BAKING, HEAT 2 CUPS OF CREAM UNTIL STEAMING. POUR OVER 3 CUPS OF CHOCOLATE CHIPS AND STIR UNTIL SMOOTH. LET COOL UNTIL DESIRED THICKNESS.
- 5. PLACE 1/4 CUP COCONUT INTO A PREHEATED 250 DEGREE OVEN TO TOAST COCONUT. KEEP A CLOSE EYE...IT BROWNS QUICKLY ONCE IT STARTS! TOAST TO DESIRED COLOR.
- 6. MAKE FILLING: IF DESIRED, PLACE A BOWL AND BEATERS IN THE FREEZER TO CHILL WHILE CAKE IS BAKING. WHILE CAKE IS COOLING, BEAT 1 CUP OF CREAM UNTIL SOFT PEAKS FORM. ADD 2 TABLESPOONS OF CREAM OF COCONUT IN WHIPPED CREAM AND CONTINUE BEATING UNTIL STIFF PEAKS FORM.
- 7. PLACE ONE LAYER ON CAKE PLATE AND SPREAD HALF WHIPPED CREAM ON TOP OF CAKE. SPRINKLE WITH 1/4 CUP COCONUT. PLACE SECOND CAKE LAYER ON TOP OF FILLING. SPREAD WITH REMAINING WHIPPED CREAM AND ANOTHER 1/4 CUP COCONUT. PLACE THIRD CAKE ON TOP.
- 8. IF GANACHE IS STILL COOLING, PLACE CAKE IN REFRIGERATOR UNTIL READY TO GLAZE. POUR GANACHE OVER TOP, SPREADING TO THE EDGE AND LETTING POUR OVER EDGE. TRY TO COVER THE SIDES WITH GANACHE. YOU CAN EITHER COVER THE SIDES OR JUST HAVE THE GANACHE DRIZZLE DOWN.
- 9. I TRIED TO COVER THE SIDES BUT BECAUSE OF THE UNEVENESS, THE GANACHE DID NOT COVER BETWEEN THE LAYERS. I COULDN'T FILL IN PART OF THE GAPS, SO I PATTED THE TOASTED COCONUT ON THE SIDES. YOU COULD ALSO SPRINKLE THE TOASTED COCONUT ON TOP IF DESIRED.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter and flour two 9-inch diameter cake pans with 2-inch high sides.
- Pour the flour, baking powder, baking soda and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Use a whisk to stir together. This will get rid of any lumps and pseudo-sift the ingredients. In a separate large bowl, beat the sugar, butter and sweetened cream of coconut until fluffy and it resembles whipped cream, about 2 minutes. Beat in the egg yolks and vanilla extract. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and stir to incorporate all the ingredients. With the mixer on low speed, beat in 1/2 the dry ingredients, followed by the buttermilk, and the remaining dry ingredients, scraping down the sides in between each addition, just until blended.
- Using clean, dry beaters, beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt in another clean large bowl until the egg whites are stiff but not dry. Cook's Note: You want to get the most volume from your egg whites, that's why it is essential that the beaters and bowl are clean. Just to be safe, I like to wipe the bowl out with a dash of vinegar, white or apple cider is best. The vinegar cuts through any fat in the bowl leaving only a sparkling bowl behind. And don't worry, you won't be able to taste the vinegar-I promise!
- In batches, fold the beaten egg whites into the batter, being careful not to deflate the whites. Divide the cake batter evenly between the prepared cake pans. Spread the batter with an offset spatula to level the batter in the pan. Bake the cakes until a tester inserted into center comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes. Cool the cakes in the pans on a wire rack, about 10 minutes. Gently run a small sharp knife around the pan sides to loosen the cakes. Cook's Note: As the cakes cool they will shrink slightly, pulling away from the sides of the pan. By running the knife around the sides of the pan you are helping in the process by taking away any resistance. Turn the cakes out onto the racks and cool completely.
- With a pastry brush, gently brush any crumbs from the cooled cake layers. If the cake baked up with a slight dome in the center, you can trim it to even it out or just remember to place that cake layer dome-side down on the cake plate. Place 1 cake layer, flat-side up, on a cake plate. Spread 1 heaping cup Coconut Cream Cheese Frosting over the cake layer, leaving a 1/2-inch border of cake around the edge. This will give the filling a place to go or spread when the second cake layer is placed on top-you don't want it to bulge out the sides!
- Sprinkle 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut mix over the frosting. Top with the second cake layer, flat-side up. Spread the remaining frosting over the top and sides of the cake. For a retro look, I like swoopy swirls. The best way to achieve it is to spread the frosting using the back of a spoon. It's that easy!
- Sprinkle the remaining coconut mix over the cake, gently pressing into the sides to adhere. Coconut Layer Cake can be prepared up to 1 day ahead. Refrigerate at least 1 hour.
- Beat the cream cheese in a medium bowl until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the butter and beat until smooth. Add the sugar, sweetened cream of coconut, vanilla extract and pinch of sea salt and beat until well blended, scraping down the sides as needed, for about 3 more minutes. Cook's Note: For a tropical twist, I add just a splash of fresh lime juice and a dash of finely grated lime zest to the mix!

- For the ganache frosting: Combine the chips, and heavy cream in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave on 30 second intervals stirring in between each round. My ganache took about 3 rounds in the microwave. Stir until smooth. Refrigerate for about 2 hours (or freeze for about 1/2 hour) until it's thickened up. Then in a stand mixer with a paddle attachment, mix on high for about 2 to 3 minutes until fluffy.
- Using your stand mixer with paddle attachment, cream the butter until light and fluffy. Add in your powdered sugar a 1/2 cup at a time with your mixer running on low. Add in your heavy cream and extracts. You may want to add more or less of the coconut extract. 2 teaspoons was perfect for me! Then mix your frosting on high for 6 to 8 minutes until super light and fluffy.
