I love coconut. Maybe partly because it makes me think of the suntan lotion I used when spending time lying on the beach with friends as I grew up in Southern California. Good memories.
Anyway, I came up with a really simple way to make a quick coconut cake that many people (who like coconut) really enjoy.
I simply took a white cake mix and used my own substitutes.
Instead of water I use coconut milk. For the oil, I use coconut oil. I put 1/2 cup flaked coconut in the batter.
I use a butter cream frosting and I use coconut milk instead of regular. Again, I add some more flaked coconut to that. Once I put some of those mini chocolate chips in the frosting for variation.
Yup, I admit it, I do like things both sweet *and* rich. Now, how many laps (around the track, or neighborhood) would that be... ha, ha!
