  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs, room temperature

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon coconut extract

For the Topping:

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare two 9-inch round cake pans.
  2. Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt. Beat butter and sugar until fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time. Stir in vanilla and coconut extracts. Alternate dry ingredients and coconut milk into the mixture.
