This cake is soooo good and moist you should make two...that way you can be sure to get some. I take it to work and it disappears really fast.
INGREDIENTS (for 1 servings):
- 2 cups white sugar
- 1 cup butter
- 5 eggs
- 1 teaspoon coconut extract
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup flaked coconut
PREPARATION:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10 inch tube pan. Mix flour, baking powder and salt together and set aside.
In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time; beat well. Mix in coconut flavoring. Add flour mixture alternately with buttermilk, mixing well with each addition. Fold in coconut. Pour batter into prepared pan.
Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean.
