Ingredients

Frosting

  • 2 ¼ cups unsalted butter
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon almond extract
  • ¼ teaspoon coconut extract
  • 1 ½ (16 ounce) packages powdered sugar
  • ½ cup coconut milk

Cake

  • 1 ¼ cups sifted cake flour
  • 1 tablespoon sifted cake flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 3 egg whites
  • 2/3 cup white sugar
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 1/3 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon unsalted butter
  • 1/3 cup sweetened coconut milk
  • 2 tablespoons sweetened coconut milk
  • 1/3 cup almond milk
  • 3 ounces sweetened flaked coconut
  • 2 ounces sliced almonds
  • 1 teaspoon almond extract
  • 1 teaspoon coconut extract
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line the bottom of a 15x10x1-inch pan with parchment paper.

Step 2
Sift cake flour, baking powder, and salt together 3 times in a bowl.

Step 3
Beat egg whites using an electric mixer in a mixing bowl until foamy. Add 1/2 of the total amount of sugar gradually; continue to beat until soft peaks form.

Step 4
Beat butter using an electric mixer in a separate bowl until creamy. Gradually add remaining sugar; beat until light and fluffy. Add flour mixture alternately with coconut milk and almond milk in small amounts at a time, beating after each addition until smooth. Mix in flaked coconut, almonds, almond extract, coconut extract, and vanilla extract. Add egg white-sugar mixture and beat thoroughly into batter. Spread batter into the prepared pan.

Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes; remove cake and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 6
While cake continues to cool, beat butter, salt, vanilla extract, almond extract, and coconut extract together in a bowl using an electric mixer on medium speed until fluffy. Add powdered sugar to butter mixture alternately with coconut milk, beating until smooth. Frost cooled cake.

Cook’s Notes:

You can use 2 1/4 cups margarine instead of butter for frosting, if desired.
