Instructions

  • Divide the batter equally between the pans. Bake the batter for 30 to 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
  • Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 15-30 minutes, then invert it onto cooling racks. While the cake cools, prepare the frosting.
  • Frosting
  • Blend the butter and cream cheese until smooth. Mix in the sweetener until well combined. Continue to mix in the vanilla. Mix in the heavy cream one at a time, until you have fluffy frosting.
  • Let the cake cool completely.
  • Spread the frosting over the top of your bottom layer. Layer the top layer over it. Spread the remaining frosting along the sides. Sprinkle coconut if desired.
  • Refrigerate the finished cake for at most 1 hour. Then, store any leftovers in a refrigerator.
