Ingredients
Two cups all-purpose flour, one tbsp baking powder, one tsp salt, one cup butter, two cups white sugar, five eggs, room temperature, one tsp coconut extract, one cup buttermilk, room temperature, one cup flaked coconut.
Prepare Dry Ingredients
In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt so that the ingredients are evenly distributed for a fluffy cake.
Cream Butter and Sugar
Incorporating as much air into the butter and sugar helps make for a soft and airy cake. Beat until light and fluffy in texture.
Add Eggs and Coconut Extract
After each addition of one egg, one by one, beat; stir in the coconut extract for that rich, fragrant coconut flavour.
Mix in Dry Ingredients
Between the alternates of buttermilk, add the dry mixture until just combined. Do not over-mix.
Add Flaked Coconut
This will add a delightful texture to the cake and give it coconut flavor throughout. Fold in the flaked coconut.
Bake the Cake
Place the batter into a greased pan and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 30-35 minutes or till it gets golden brown.
