• Mix flour, baking powder, and salt together and set aside.
• Beat butter and sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until light and fluffy. The mixture should be noticeably lighter in color. Add the room-temperature eggs one at a time, allowing each egg to blend into the butter mixture before adding the next. Mix in coconut extract.
• Pour in the flour mixture alternately with the buttermilk, mixing until just incorporated. Fold in coconut, mixing just enough to evenly combine. Pour batter into prepared pan.

• Beat egg whites in a glass or metal bowl until foamy. Gradually add sugar, continuing to beat until medium peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the tip of the peak formed by the egg whites should curl over slightly. Fold egg white mixture into batter until just combined. Pour batter evenly into the prepared baking pans.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of each cake comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.

BUTTERMILK CHOCOLATE CAKE WITH COCONUT PECAN MARMALADE

Steps:

• Butter three 8 inch cake pans thoroughly and line the base of each with baking parchment. Rub a little more butter onto the paper. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• In a double boiler, melt the chocolate over simmering water, stirring occasionally, and set aside to cool. Sift the flour together with the sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. In the bowl of an electric mixer or with a handheld mixer, beat the butter until it is fluffy. Add the flour mixture, 3/4 cup of the buttermilk, and the vanilla and beat in thoroughly, mixing for about 2 minutes with the electric mixer. Add the melted chocolate, eggs, and the remaining 1/4 cup of the buttermilk and beat for 1 minute longer. Pour an equal amount of the cake batter into each prepared pan and bake on the center rack of the oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool the cakes in their pans for 15 minutes, then turn out onto a cake rack and finish cooling. With a soft pastry brush, brush any loose crumbs from the side edges of the cake layers.
• To make the marmalade, combine the milk, sugar, egg yolks, and butter in a medium saucepan. Over medium heat cook the mixture, stirring constantly, until it thickens, about 10 minutes. Do not let the mixture come to a boil. Remove from the heat and add the coconut and pecans. Stir together well, then let cool almost to room temperature, beating occasionally so that it does not form a crust.
• To assemble the cake, place the first layer of cake on a serving dish. Spread a layer of the marmalade on the top of the cake only, about 1/2 inch thick. Place the second layer of the cake on top of the first and spread the top of it with some of the marmalade. Finally, place the third cake layer on the top and spread a nice, thick, and slightly rounded layer of the marmalade on top of that. Cut into wedges for serving.

• Pour into cake pans at bake for 40 minutes or until toothpick inserted in cake comes out clean.
• For Icing:.
• Cook sugar, milk, coconut, marshmallows over a double boiler until smooth. Note: as it is hard to find unsweeted coconut, I've used sweeted and reduced the sugar to 1/2 Cup. Fold in almond extract. Icing will be fairly runny--it's supposed to seep into the cake and run off the sides. If you want it to be thicker, add more marshmallows.
• Ice layers and top of cake while still hot. I poke holes in the layers with a toothpick so that the icing seeps down into the cake.
• Cover and refrigerate overnight. No cheating! You MUST serve it after it's been refrigerated, and serve it cold - it's best that way.
• Enjoy!
