POWDERED-SUGAR COCONUT LAYER CAKE
The powdery softness of confectioners' sugar gives this cake an especially velvety crumb. For an especially interesting design, use a variety of open- and closed-star tips when piping the trees on top of the cake. For a how-to, go to marthastewart.com/coconut-cake-buttercream.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Brush two 9-by-2-inch round cake pans with butter; line bottoms with parchment. Butter parchment. Dust with flour, tapping out excess.
- Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. In the bowl of a mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter with coconut oil on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add confectioners' sugar; beat on low speed until combined, then increase speed to medium and beat until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes more. Add egg whites and vanilla; beat until combined, about 1 minute.
- Reduce speed to low; beat in flour mixture in 3 batches, alternating with coconut milk in 2 batches, until just combined.
- Divide batter between prepared pans; smooth tops. Bake until a tester inserted in centers comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool in pans set on a wire rack 5 minutes. Turn out onto rack; let cool completely.
- With a serrated knife, trim tops of cakes level. In a bowl, fold shredded coconut into 1 cup buttercream. Spread evenly on one cake layer. Top with second cake layer, trimmed-side down. Reserve 2 cups buttercream; use remainder to spread a smooth layer over entire cake.
- Place reserved buttercream in a pastry bag fitted with a large star tip (such as Ateco #826). Use a tree-shaped cookie cutter to mark an overlapping pattern on top of cake, then fill in each tree by piping within markings: Working from bottom to top, hold pastry bag at a 45-degree angle and place tip on cake; squeeze while pulling forward and then up, releasing pressure to make pointed tips. Cake can be stored in refrigerator in an airtight container up to 1 day; bring to room temperature before serving.

Steps:
- For the cake: Position racks in the middle and lower third of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Butter three 9-inch round cake pans and line the bottoms with parchment paper; butter the parchment, dust with flour and tap out the excess. Set aside.
- Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk the buttermilk and cream of coconut in a small bowl. Beat the butter and 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Add the egg yolks, one at a time, beating well after each addition, then beat in the vanilla and coconut extracts. Reduce the mixer speed to low; beat in the flour mixture in three batches, alternating with the buttermilk mixture, until combined.
- Beat the egg whites and the remaining 1/2 cup granulated sugar in a large bowl with clean beaters on medium-high speed until stiff glossy peaks form, 4 to 5 minutes. Using a rubber spatula, fold the egg whites into the batter in three batches until just combined (do not overmix). Divide the batter among the prepared pans and bake, switching the pans halfway through, until the cakes are lightly browned and the centers spring back when lightly pressed, 30 to 35 minutes. Transfer to racks and let cool 20 minutes in the pans, then run a small knife around the edges of each cake and carefully invert onto the racks; remove the parchment and let cool completely.
- For the frosting: Beat the butter and cream cheese in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until smooth, about 2 minutes. Reduce the mixer speed to low and beat in about half of the confectioners' sugar until combined. Add the remaining confectioners' sugar, salt and vanilla and coconut extracts and beat until combined. Increase the mixer speed to medium high and continue beating, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed, until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
- Place one cake layer on a cake stand or platter and top with a heaping 2/3 cup frosting. Add another cake layer, more frosting and the last cake layer. Cover the top and sides of the cake with the remaining frosting. Sprinkle the coconut all over the top and sides of the cake, gently pressing to adhere.

QUICK COCONUT LAYER CAKE
This is quick because of the cake mix base, but it's luscious with its whipped cream frosting and loads of coconut. This would be terrific for Easter. Tint the coconut and add jellybeans on top! This is a combination of a couple of recipes from The Cake Mix Doctor. Please keep refrigerated. :)
