- Worth-the-Wait Coconut Cake
15.25 ounce box Yellow Cake Mix
1 cup Coconut Milk or Milk or Water
1/2 cup Coconut Oil or Vegetable Oil
3 Eggs
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Butter and flour 2 - 8" round cake pans.
Prepare cake mix adding the milk, oil and eggs. Pour into the cake pans and bake for 28 to 30 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes and then remove the cakes to a cooling rack to completely cool. Split each cake layer crosswise to have a total of 4 layers.
Frosting:
2 cups (16 ounces) Sour Cream
2 - 14-ounce bags Sweetened Flaked Coconut
1-1/2 cups White Sugar
1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
2 generous cups Cool Whip, Whipped Topping
In a mixing bowl stir together sour cream, sugar, vanilla extract and 1 bag of coconut.
RESERVE 1 cup of the mixture and spread the remainder between cake layers as you stack them. Be sure to place a dollop on the bottom of your cake container to hold it in place. Stir the whipped topping into the reserved mixture and frost the top and sides of the cake. Using the 2nd bag of coconut press into the sides and top of the cake to cover. Place in an air-tight container and refrigerate for 2 or 3 days before serving to let the flavors come together and the texture moisten. Or cheat like we do lots of times and eat it sooner.
This is another recipe I HAVE to make ASAP! 😁 I can hardly wait! Girl, you are putting up the best dishes. Our heavenly Father gave us all things to richly enjoy. Your joy sure comes through on your videos. Thank you & God bless you.

Hey sweet friend . Oh my that’s my favorite cake . Yours looks divine. Bless you . ✌🏾❤️🌹💐🙏🏾
Hello sweet Dorothy. Wish I could give you a piece of that cake girl. Bless you too😊💜✝️
I make this coconut cake we love it. Looks beautiful.
From the time I was a little girl (i just turned 60), Coconut cake was my all time favorite. I have a picture of me on my 5th birthday up on my knees on a kitchen chair, looking at my coconut birthday cake, and I'm getting ready to blow out the candles. .... We were pretty poor when I was a kid, but my momma would always make sure we all had a cake...... I always chose coconut cake. My mom always made everything from scratch (like most mothers then. I'm so happy you told us about using a yellow cake mix..... I never even thought about it. I think of making everything homemade.
I remember when I was a kid also, a grocery store (Big Bear) by our house had already made coconut cakes for like $1.00 or if things were a few days old, Mom would buy the cake for 25 cents and get 10 loaves of bread for $1.00... Mom would also get this thing called a flip. it was a cake flipped over and full of cream....... Oh My Word.....
Now I'm reminiscing...Every time I see a coconut cake it brings me back. Thank you honey.
I must tell you that I thoroughly enjoyed you sweet and precious memories. I was smiling and just imagining and putting myself in there with you. Like watching and movie. Thank you so very much for sharing this with me 😊💜💜💜💜💜 so glad you have such wonderful memories with a coconut cake cfhe prices of things were Heavenly then. 😊💜💜💜💜💜💜

Coconut cake is my favorite, and this looks sooo delicious! Thanks for sharing, Amy!
You're very welcome
I have never made a coconut cake but I am making this one for Easter.
Amy...my Mom and so enjoy watching your UA-cam Channel together. And we both LOVE Coconut Cake. This looks so delicious! 😋 So love watching you and John together...you are such a loving couple. Thanks for taking us on your walk to the Canning Kitchen. It's so nice to see your property and the Cows. ❤ Karen from Florida.
Kay I'm so very glad you enjoyed. Thank you so much for letting me know. Please tell your Mom I said hello.
@@amyslouisianakitchen I sure will! ❤
I love how you feed Mr. John ..he's always so excited to see you....and you him!!
Loved your comment!! It “tickled me!!”😅🥰🤭
I would pay you to make that for us! LOL Looks absolutely amazing and I am sure tastes the same!
Hahaha! Im still laughing! Y'all are too funny!!! Hahahah!
😄😊💜
Looks so good
Beautiful cake ❤👍
Thank you
Oh my word! I can' t WAIT to try this!😍Also, I wonder where I can find such a great domed cake keeper such as yours. Mine is so small, I'm not sure I could get this cake inside it!🍰 I'm a new subscriber and THRILLED to have found your channel! Many blessings to you and John! ✨💛✨
I'm so glad you have found us. Glad you are here. I bought that cake keeper at Walmart years ago. It is a standard sized one. Maybe it looks bigger on camera. I bet yours will fit. I hope so. One time I made a chocolate cake so tall that I had to cover it with a metal stock pot 😄I will make it one day and probably have to show yall on a video 💜😊
@@amyslouisianakitchen Ha ha haaa! A stock pot is a perfect solution! How ingenious of you! Thanks for the kind welcome!
You guys made me laugh….hope you have a wonderful April!
Laughter is what it's all about.
My favorite Cake and my Mom and Sister makes it for my Birthday.
Miss Ruby
Yuuuummmmm.
I remember my Great Aunt Inez having this layered Coconut cake on the table, but only after the main course food was covered (for supper), on our annual summer vacation from Michigan or Ohio down into the countryside of Southern Alabama.... sooo good. Thanks for bringing back fun memories.
Am eating my biscuits & poached eggs with cheese while I watched this...was that Coconut I tasted?... Great job!!! 🥥
Love y'all. Many thanks°°
😄🥥🥥😊too funny! I love your memory of your Great Inez making this cake. Thank you for sharing it.
Oh wow, beautiful and looks delicious!! I’ll have to try it soon!
You will be pleased when you do. Please let me know what you think
Amy I made this last year for my brother when he came to visit and we all loved it. I just got finished making it for a 2nd time as my brother and his wife are coming back for a visit and this is the cake they love. It’s the best cake I’ve ever made. Thank you!
My boyfriend just told me he wanted coconut cake for Easter and then u made this one. I'm going to have to try it, it looks so good. 😋
Oh my goodness Tammy. How neat. We are all on the same wave length. A coconut miracle.
I'll have to make it and not tell him or he want wait the 3 days😂
So pretty out there.,at sunset.🕊”
Coconut is my favorite cake. It looks beautiful
Mine too. Thank you😊💜
I love coconut cake! I actually have the stuff to make one like I normally do but I have the stuff to do your recipe and I think I will try it. This looks great . I trust John Murray that it is delicious. Glad you are getting your voice back! I lose mine a lot in the spring and fall.
Beth thank you for your kind words girl. So sweet of you. Yew please try this recipe and when you do let me know what you think. I promise you won't be dissatisfied!😊💜
@@amyslouisianakitchen I certainly will
Amy this cake is delicious & my 12 yr old grand daughter loves it! I am making it for HER for Mother's Day!! (smile) I have made this coconut cake several times & it is worth the wait!!! But we don't we cheat too!
I make this all the time, but I use frozen coconut....seems to add more moisture. Everyone thinks it's difficult to make....but it's really not! I love your canning kitchen!!!!! Gives me ideas for here in the city!
Love that you got some ideas Fed Up. Thank you for your sweet comment 😊
What a pretty cake 🍰
oh yeah Buddy 😉😋😋😋yummmmy
I would love to use a cookbook written by you. Yes coffee in the morning, curled up in my big old chair with Sofie the house cat curled up close... And your lovely cookbook resting open on my lap. Yep you need to write yourself a little cookbook!
That cakes looks so pretty and I’m sure really delicious too!!! Laryngitis is making the rounds at our house too. The pollen is really high today and going to be higher tomorrow. But it’s worth it because of the beautiful flowers that comes after.
Yea Diane you are correct. It is well worth it. Love the Spring😊🌸💜
Oh my goodness!! I am so glad I found you. Yes I am new and first time viewer. That cake!! Looks worth the cheat!! Lololol!!! I have got to make it. I have been watching my carbs but that cake is a must. 🌹Thank you from a new subscriber.
@@aprilmurphy42 I'm so glad you found me too. Thank you for your kindness. I'm just seeing your comment 😊💜💜💜💜💜
I’ve made a version of this cake with the fresh frozen coconut. It is so good but takes 4-5 pkgs of the coconut and so is expensive. I’m so happy to see you use the sweetened coconut flakes. I will make this for sure. Thank you for your videos❤❤
I LOVE THAT COCONUT CAKE BUT WHEN I MAKE IT I USE THE FRESH COCONUT OUT OF THE FREEZER SECTION,IT'S ALL GOOD ANYWAY,GOD BLESS YOU AND JOHN,STAY SAFE
I bet your coconut cake is delicious with the frozen.
Just saw your video! Love your easy instructions, making sure viewers can keep up with you.. Fixing to make your Awesome looking Coconut Cake.
I'm a new subscriber and I love this recipe! Amy you and your husband are just such an adorable couple!
Your property and cattle are beautiful 😍 thank you for sharing them with us!💜
You remind me of Dolly Parton;your personality!!!
@@teresajohnson8988 I have heard that since I was 15 years old and I never get tired of, that. Thank you so much.
Amy , that cake looks amazingly delicious 😋 John sure enjoyed it 😀God Bless you two 🙏
That looks delicious! Now if I can come up with a keto cake recipe....lol!
Girl you can do it. Now you've got me thinking😊😄
Amy!!💓💓
You remind me So Much of my Dearest & Sweetest Cousin Diane( she’s passed).. but was like a Sister to me!🥰She lived on a Farm.. in Midland,NC & had All the chickens .. cows & (a Bull)!!
We use to swim in the creek (& there were water moccasins in there)..& Swing on the vines across the creek (but had to get passed the Bull to get there)!!!🫨😰😵🥵🙏🙏🙏
It was Always a scary but challenging thing for us!! You Are just a gem!! You (with your accent & ways) bring back So Many Good Memories!! Especially of her & our growing up!! Loved the tour of your Farm!!..& your Canning shed (is there water.. sink & a BR in there)?? 🤔
Anyway.. I’ve made a Coconut Cake similar to yours but with the frozen coconut!! It IS Scrumptious!! & is Addictive!! You can’t stop eating it!! Not too Sweet.. “Just Right!”🙌🙌💓😋😋
Thank you for Sharing ALL Your Wonderful Recipes.. your stories & your Sweet hubby’s interaction with All your Dishes!! I (& All of us) LOVE Your Channel!! You’re the Sweetest & The Best!! Lots of Love & Appreciation!!🙌🙌💓🙏🙏🥰👍👍😋
Alyce (Mimi) from Virginia Beach!!🥰💓💓
Alyce I enjoyed so very much reading your comment. Swinging past the bull! Wow what an exhilarating memory. You are so kind and dear to encourage me like you do. So thankful to have you as a, friend. I am, gonna look for frozen coconut in my stores. And give that a try. Yes I am. Sending you love to Virginia Beach 😊💜💜💜💜💜💜

Looks delicious
BEAUTIFUL, I need to make that cake
I don't cook or bake anymore but I Love watching your videos and when John comes in, he's the "icing on the cake",Lol
Lynn so glad you watch. I'll bake for the both of us girl.
I'll take one please 😁
Thank you for the recipe and the walk!
Will you be making a garden planting video this year?
Hugs
I'm thinking of not planting the garden except for tomatoes. Gonna work on my flower beds this year. Gonna be weird not garden planting though. I know I'll miss it. Gotta grow tomatoes though.
@@amyslouisianakitchen I understand! I've got onions in, I'll be growing okra, maybe jalapenos, it depends because mine last year were just bad, they never got bigger than a thumb nail. Tomatoes of course. I grew cantaloupe last year and only got 3 🤣
I tried green beans 🤣 that was a fail because I didn't know you have to put something they can climb.
Thank you Amy! Laryngitis is no fun, I get that often because of my allergies, I'm allergic to everything but food 🤣🤣
Thank you Amy!!
You're very welcome 😊
Yum!
Having worked professionally as a baker, there isn't the time or space to cool cake layers on their own. We put the cake layers on racks and filled 7 or 8 shelves on the rolling rack and just rolled it into the walk in freezer to cool...
If you bake a lot of cakes at home you might want to look at Walmart or online for Wilton cake strips. They're insulated fabric strips that you soak in water and attach to your cake pans. It helps to distribute heat evenly. Helps in cakes baking with a uniform flat top. Cakes also rise better.
Enjoy 😊
Stephanie I have some of those strips myself. They are wonderful. Didn't when I made this video. I too worked professionally for years at a bakery called the Gingerbread House in town and loved it💜 we did the same about rolling right into that freezer. Girl it makes me tired thinking about it. There would be Fridays that I would decorate no less than 50 cakes by myself. I would be pooped but I was young back then so I recovered quickly😄 thank you for all your info. I want to make a video showing the difference in a cake using those strips soaked in water an d not using them. I need more time! Do you have a recipe for time😄😑😊💜?
@@amyslouisianakitchen sorry, no recipe for time 😥
But I'll keep an eye out for one !!
I too was much younger when I worked in a european bakery. Cheers to us for surviving and being blessed with the experience.
I just love you guys!! ❤
That is one delicious looking cake cant wait to make it ! Love watching u and John do taste tests y’all are a hoot ! Sorry to hear about y’all having laryngitis glad your doing better! Take care and have a good night !
Thank you so much. I hope you have a good night as well.
Looks amazing!! Ty 🥰🥰🥰
I made a cake like this from a Paula Dean video. She used the icing to put between the layers. She then made 7 minute frosting for the top and coated it in coconut. It’s heavenly. I may try this one as well t wouldn’t be as sweet. Love your videos Amy.
I've seen Paula making that one too. It is delicious too. When you try this one please let me know what you think. I tell you it isn't as sweet and the sour cream gives it the best flavor.
Diff between volume and solid
Definitely about to make this bad boy!! It looks sooo good! Love your videos Amy!
Linda you won't be sorry!
I soak my coconut in a little coconut milk before I put it on the cake, just adds a little extra moisture 😊
What a great tip!! Thank you for sharing.
Love this cake ! I have some comments but I’m not doing well . Will add my thoughts when I feel better. I failed to take my morning meds so,that is probably what the problem is. Will,comment when I can breathe better. Love you lots! 💜💜
Ms Vikki I sure hope you do get to feeling better. Please let me know later how your feeling.
@@amyslouisianakitchen Amy, was terribly sick last light and all through today until evening. I feared it was my heart failure again. I don’t usually have headaches but my head was really hurting, very hot on my forehead and I just had an all around weird feeling in my head. Couldn’t get my words to come out right. I called Donna at work and she wanted me to go to the ER. Every time I go to the ER I end up getting admitted. I have this couple who I can always count on for prayer or anything I need. I called them. I don’t want to tell you what I had to ask from them. Too embarrassing. They also brought Tylenol for the headache but it stopped all at once before they got to my house with the Tylenol. That was God. 🙌🏻🙌🏻 I started feeling better this evening. I appreciate your prayers. I love you!💜💜🙏🏻🙏🏻💜💜🙏🏻🙏🏻
I love coconut. BUT I hate sour cream. With a passion. Lol.
Deborah the sugar changes the flavor of the sour cream so much. I wish I could give you a bite girl.
Good recipe but try it with fresh frozen coconut.It's next level goodness!!!
I always put coconut milk in mine. People rave about it.
This looks great! i may try it for easter. I think i may add pinapple and jared cherries.I love how beautiful your property is.How many cows do you have?
I think Easter when I make this cake too. Your pineapple and cherries sounds like a delicious addition.
@@amyslouisianakitchen I so look forward to all your videos. Myself and my little dog Holly check every morning to see whats new with our friend Amy lol. You and i are so much alike its crazy lol
@@heatheradriance1680 so sweet girlie. Give Holly a hug and kiss from me😊💜
@@amyslouisianakitchen I will shes just the sweetest little thing. God bless you and yours. I just love how sweet you and john are together. I cant wait till i find my forever someone. I love to cook for my family on sundays. I usually have 6 people but you would think i was cooking for 50 i have zero portion control lol.
Cool Is sold by by The weight not by volume
Cool whip
Does the flavor of the coconut go into the cake my birthday is coming up and I would love this
With the new cake mixes you need two boxes! They have cut down on the cake mix!
Cool whip is lighter than water so there is more in 16 oz
My Mom made one, but she did a 7 minute icing. I still haven’t conquered it.
I'm gonna make homemade 7 minute icing soon. My Mawmaw always made that too and it was so very yummy. I want to make chocolate 7 minute with you too!
@@amyslouisianakitchen it’s so hard to get it like my moms. I would watch her thread like a needle, she would say. Her icing never was to stiff, and I loved it.
I make this with frozen coconut. Have you tried it?
Have not. Sounds delicious though.
I like frozen coconut. I also use unsweetened dried coconut in fruit salads, etc.
This looks so good!
Love you Amy, but hate cake mix. To many preservative’s. I am sure some love it and that’s ok
Is the frosting grainy from the sugar?
No it isn't st all.
Ty so much for this,can’t wait to try it! I will definitely be following your page and your advice!
