I'm going to have a hard time waiting for dessert tomorrow night!
There's coconut extract and cream of coconut in the cake. There's coconut in the frosting between the layers. And coconut atop the frosting. It's not perfect, but it'll do the job. (And it didn't cost me $99; that's how much a local bakery wanted for a standard layer cake. I almost pooped my knickers when she told me that!) Yum!

Coconut cake is a family favorite around here. I said before that my sister would walk through hot coals. Well, my brother loves the stuff, too. We always asked for it for our birthdays (for me, it was either the cake or a lemon meringue pie).

I hope it's good! They'll never let me forget it, if it's not! (Many years ago, I tried a different buttercream frosting. It was OK. But my sister noticed right away. I can make the cake; it's the frosting that gives me fits.
