My Coconut Angel Pudding Cake Recipes

COCONUT ANGEL FOOD CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F, with rack in the lower third of oven.
• Sift together flour and 3/4 cup sugar.
• Beat egg whites and warm water with a mixer on low speed until foamy, about 3 minutes. Add cream of tartar, vanilla, salt, and coconut extract.
• Increase speed to medium, and beat until soft peaks form, about 3 minutes.
• With machine running, add remaining 3/4 cup sugar, a little at a time. Increase speed to high, and beat until peaks are stiff and glossy, about 2 minutes.
• Remove bowl from mixer.
• Working in 3 batches, sift flour mixture over egg-white mixture, gently folding in each addition with a rubber spatula, being careful not to deflate egg whites.
• Slowly pour batter into a 10-inch angel food cake pan.
• Bake until cake is golden brown and springs back when touched, 40 to 45 minutes.
• Immediately from the oven, carefully invert pan onto a wire rack. Let cake cool in pan, about 1 hour.
• Carefully run a knife around sides of cake to loosen, and turn out onto a large plate or cake stand.
• Pour the heavy cream into a chilled stand mixer bowl (to chill a bowl fill with water and ice and let sit for a moment, then empty and dry) and add the sugar and coconut extract.
• Beat the cream until peaks stand in firm when the beaters are lifted, about 2 minutes.
• Gently frost the cooled angel food cake and sprinkle with unsweetened coconut flakes. (Or sweetened if you prefer!)

COCONUT-LEMON PUDDING CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Lightly butter an 8-by-8-inch baking dish and put it in a roasting pan.
• Whip the egg whites in a medium bowl using an electric mixer, on medium-high speed, until they form soft peaks. Then slowly pour in 1/4 cup sugar and continue to beat until the whites hold stiff, glossy peaks.
• Beat the butter with the remaining 1/2 cup sugar in a large bowl, on medium speed, until creamy. Beat in the flour until combined and then add the coconut milk, lemonade concentrate, egg yolks and salt and beat until smooth. Fold a quarter of the egg whites into the coconut mixture to lighten the batter and then fold in the remaining whites.
• Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and add enough boiling water to the roasting pan to come halfway up the side of the dish. Bake until the top of the cake is slightly puffed and the middle is set but still jiggly, about 40 minutes. Remove from the water bath and cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Serve warm and garnish with toasted coconut if using.
