Basic Baker's Coconut Cake, Moist Cake with Cream of Coconut Icing

Basic Baker's Coconut Cake, Moist Cake with Cream of Coconut Icing
DO YOU REMEMBER that good old southern cooking?
If you learn to cook like my mama and granny, you will become one of the best Southern cooks. Thank you so much for being a part of this dream of mine.
NOW FOR THIS FAMILY RECIPE:
Buttercream Icing
2 STICKS SALTED BUTTER (ROOM TEMP.)
4 1/2 CUPS POWDERED SUGAR
2 TSP. VANILLA
DASH OF SALT
1 1/2 TBSP. CREAM (EVAPORATED MILK)
In a stand mixer’s mixing bowl add butter and mix with whisk attachment on high speed until white and fluffy. Slowly add 2 cups of powdered sugar. Add cream and vanilla. Finish adding powdered sugar. Add a dash of salt.
Coconut Buttercream:
Omit 1/2 stick of butter in the buttercream recipe above. Open can of cream of coconut and pour into a separate bowl. Mix the hard layer of grease on top into the liquid well. Then add 1/2 cup of cream of coconut to the icing. Icing will be thin for using on my fresh coconut cake. If you want to use it to ice a different cake, add powdered sugar to reach the desired icing consistency.

Back in the 1950s and 1960s, my grandmother used to make cakes from scratch. I remember her coconut cakes were a thing of beauty! Thanks for the memories. 😊

My grandmother was from Tennessee and I lived with her when I was a child in the 1950s. She baked a lot of pies, but I only remember her making a cake once a year on my birthday. It was always a coconut cake, made pretty much the way you do, except just butter, no coconut cream in the icing. She always made more icing than she needed, then took the rest of the icing, mixed it with coconut, and rolled it little balls for treats. She always used Baker’s coconut too. This video brings back such memories. I need to try making one myself.

That looks delish! My Mom had dementia as well. She lived about 8-9 years after we first noticed something was off. She was an awesome cook too. It is sad to watch someone you love disappear little by little. It is like losing them twice. Keep doing these awesome video's and sharing your secrets!

My momma made the prettiest coconut cakes. They looked like a big snowball. She used seven minute frosting and put coconut on top and sides. It was so delicious. She passed in 2009 and I haven't got the nerve up to try and make it.😊

Baker's coconut is absolutely the best to buy.. Our walmart sells Lopez cream of coconut in the row near soda with drink mixer things..This cake looks so very tasty!
