How To Make Coconut-Cake with 7-Min Frosting
Grease and flour cake pans (2 8″ or 9″ rounds, or a 13×9″ pan). Place parchment in the bottom of the rounds, if using. Heat oven to 350°F.
In a medium bowl, sift together flour, baking powder and salt.
In another bowl, beat together oil and 1 1/2 cups of the sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in vanilla and coconut extracts. Add flour and milk, alternating between the two in small additions. Beat until blended.
In the bowl of a stand mixer, or in a large bowl with a hand mixer, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. Add remaining 2 tbsp sugar and beat until incorporated. Gently stir egg whites into batter.
