A delicious (traditional) coconut cake with sour cream and coconut filling topped with a cream cheese coconut frosting. As this cake is very rich, the only side recommended is a lot of love! This recipe uses Ancel’s coconut, which is a brand name of coconut in heavy syrup sold in Louisiana.

  • 1 cup flaked coconut
  • Enough milk to make frosting easy to spread

Step 3
