🥥 Coconut Cream Dream Cake

Ingredients:

For the cake:

• 1 box white cake mix (or your favorite homemade vanilla cake)
• 1 cup coconut milk (or regular milk)
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil
• 3 large eggs
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/2 tsp coconut extract (optional)

For the coconut cream soak:

• 1 can (400ml) coconut milk
• 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
• 1/2 cup cream of coconut (like Coco Lopez)

For the topping:

• 2 cups heavy whipping cream
• 1/3 cup powdered sugar (or to taste)
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 1/2 cups sweetened shredded coconut (toasted, optional)

🔪 Instructions:

1. Prepare the cake:
   • Preheat oven to 175°C (350°F). Grease a 9×13 inch (23×33 cm) baking dish.
   • In a large bowl, mix cake mix, coconut milk, oil, eggs, vanilla, and coconut extract until well combined.
   • Pour into prepared pan and bake for 28–32 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
2. Poke and soak:
   • While cake is still warm, poke holes all over with a skewer or fork.
   • Mix together coconut milk, sweetened condensed milk, and cream of coconut.
   • Slowly pour the mixture over the cake. Let it absorb completely. Chill in the fridge for at least 2 hours (or overnight).
3. Whipped topping:
   • Beat cold heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla until stiff peaks form.
   • Spread whipped cream over chilled cake.
4. Finish it off:
   • Sprinkle generously with shredded or toasted coconut.
   • Chill until ready to serve. Best served cold!
