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.

COCONUT CAKE WITH SOUR CREAM AND LEMON CURD
Steps:
- So Easy Filling - 1. Combine ingredients. 2. Set aside. Lemon Curd - 1. Combine egg yolks, sugar and lemon juice in saucepan. 2. Cook over low heat until mixture coats back of spoon, about 10 min. 3. Stir in butter and rind. 4. Cover and cool completely Cake - 350 degrees 1. Grease and flour 3(9 inch) pans 2. Cream butter. 3. Add sugar and continue beating until light and fluffy. 4. Add eggs, one at a time 5. Add milk and flour alternately. Always begin and end with dry ingredients. 6. Add extracts 7. Bake 350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes. 8. Cool completely Frosting 1. Combine all ingredients except extracts in saucepan or top of double boiler. (Do not let bottom of double boiler touch the water or your frosting will be grainy. I don't know why it does this but it will ruin your frosting. I am speaking from experience.) 2. Beat with electric mixer on high speed for 7 min. 3. Add extracts. Assembly 1. Use a wooden skewer to poke holes approximately 1/2 inch all over layer. When I used a wooden spoon it was easier to getn the filling into the layers but the cake fell apart when slicing. 2. Spread 1/3 of filling over cake layer and using an offset spatula gently force filling into holes. (This may take just a little of time and patience) 3. Spread 1/3 of lemon curd over filling (I found that if you place each layer in the freezer for a few minutes the lemon curd is easier to spread) 4. Continue this layering on all three layers. 5. Frost 6. Sprinkle sides and top of cake with additional coconut 7. For garnish I have added candied lemon slices

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F Butter and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
- With an electric mixer, cream the butter and 2 cups of sugar until light and fluffy.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the coconut milk and vanilla. Add half of the milk mixture to the butter and sugar mixture and beat until well blended.
- Into another bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Add the sifted mixture to the butter mixture and stir well. Thoroughly mix in the remaining milk mixture. The batter will be very heavy.
- Using an electric mixer with clean, dry beaters and a clean bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Fold the beaten whites into the batter until no trace of white remains.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pans and bake until the tip of a knife inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean, about 40 minutes.
- While the cake is baking, make the lemon curd. In the saucepan, whisk together the lemon peel, juice, sugar, and eggs.
- On medium heat, cook the mixture, whisking constantly until the curd thickens, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the heat.
- For a perfectly smooth curd, pour the curd through a fine-mesh strainer to remove the lemon peel and any bits of egg (I always do this, because there are always little egg bits in the curd).
- Whisk in the butter a little at a time.
- Refrigerate the curd until well-chilled, about an hour.
- When the cake is cooled, spread half of the lemon curd between the two layers.
- Whip the cream until stiff and stir in the remaining lemon curd. Spread the whipped lemon cream over the cake and chill well.
- Serve sprinkled with toasted coconut flakes.
