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.

LEMON SNACKING CAKE WITH COCONUT GLAZE
With a poundcake-like texture and zippy lemon flavor, this tender treat is loaded with grated citrus zest and topped with a sweet, mellow coconut frosting. Like many snacking cakes, it's easily whisked together without a mixer, and quick to bake. Perfect as an afternoon pick-me-up, it goes as well with a glass of milk as it does with mugs of coffee, tea or hot cocoa.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9-by-9-inch pan, and then line with parchment paper, letting the two long ends hang over the edge of the pan by at least 2 inches.
- Grate 2 tablespoons of zest from the lemons. Juice the lemons so you have 1/4 cup/60 milliliters juice. Add juice and zest to a medium bowl, then whisk in oil, sour cream, coconut milk and eggs.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Whisk wet mixture into dry mixture until smooth.
- Scrape batter into baking pan and spread in an even layer. Sprinkle evenly with shredded sweetened coconut. Bake until the top of the cake springs back when lightly pressed in the center, and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean, 35 to 45 minutes. Let cool completely.
- When cake is cool, make the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, oil and salt. Whisk in the confectioners' sugar until smooth. Pour over the cake, and grate some lemon zest over the top. Let the glaze set for at least 30 minutes before serving.
