Ingredients

Chocolate Ganache:
  • 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Coconut Cake:
  • 5 eggs, separated and room temperature
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon coconut extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon almond extract
  • 2 1/4 cups cake flour, or all purpose gluten free flour (I highly recommend Cup 4 Cup gluten free flour)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup buttermilk, room temperature
  • 2 cups sweetened flaked or shredded coconut
  • 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar

Coconut Frosting and Filling:
  • 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 teaspoon almond extract
  • 8 ounce tub whipped topping (Cool Whip)
  • 2 cups sweetened flaked or shredded coconut
  • 1/4 cup sliced almonds, toasted

Instructions

Chocolate Ganache:
  1. Place chocolate chips in a medium bowl. In a small saucepan heat 1 1/2 cups heavy cream until just simmering. Pour heated cream over chocolate chips. Let sit for 1 minute and then stir until chocolate is smooth, melted, and well mixed.
  2. Set ganache aside to cool and thicken while making and cooling cakes. The ganache will be ready to use when it holds shape and is spreadable (can take up to 2 hours). You can also speed up process by placing it in the refrigerator, just make sure to stir every 15 minutes. 

Coconut Cake:
  1. Preheat oven to 325ºF. Spray THREE 9 inch cake pans with cooking spray. Line each bottom with a cut-to-size parchment or wax paper circle. Spray again and set aside.
  2. In a large bowl place sugar, softened butter, and vegetable oil. Beat until well blended, about 2 minutes. Add room temperature egg yolks, one at a time, beating well between each addition. Mix in vanilla, coconut, and almond extracts.
