Recipe

Preparation Time: 15 mins Cook Time: 45 mins Ready Time: 1 hr


• preheat oven to 350 degrees f (175 degrees c). grease a 9x13-inch cake pan.
• beat sugar, butter, and egg yolks together in a bowl using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy; add shredded coconut.
• whisk flour, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl. stir creamed butter mixture, alternating with coconut milk, into flour mixture until batter is just mixed.
• beat egg whites in a glass or metal bowl until until soft peaks form. lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites will form soft mounds rather than a sharp peak. fold egg whites into batter. pour batter into the prepared cake pan.
• bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean, about 45 minutes.
