– 1 cup coconut milk

– 1 cup unsweetened coconut cream

– Optional: Extra coconut for garnish


Instructions

Creating the Christmas Coconut Snow Cake is a straightforward process if you follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour seven 8-inch round cake pans.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
3. Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy.
4. Add Eggs and Vanilla: Beat in the eggs one at a time, then add the vanilla extract and mix well.
5. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with coconut milk, starting and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined.
6. Fold in Coconut: Gently fold in the shredded sweetened coconut until evenly distributed.
7. Divide the Batter: Evenly divide the batter among the seven prepared cake pans.
8. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
9. Cool the Cakes: Remove the cakes from the oven and let them cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then transfer them to wire racks to cool completely.
10. Prepare the Frosting: In a mixing bowl, combine powdered sugar and coconut cream, beating until fluffy and smooth.
11. Assemble the Cake: Place one layer of the cake on a serving platter. Spread a layer of frosting on top, then add the next layer. Repeat until all layers are stacked.
12. Frost the Sides: Use the remaining frosting to cover the sides and top of the cake.
13. Decorate: Generously sprinkle shredded coconut over the top and sides of the cake for a snowy effect.

Following these steps will result in a stunning Christmas Coconut Snow Cake that is sure to be the highlight of your holiday festivities!
