Ingredients at room temperature:
Zest of 1 lime
2 large eggs
¾ cup white sugar
½ cup vegetable oil or melted butter
¾ cup full fat coconut milk
1 tsp vanilla
½ tsp salt
1 tsp baking powder
½ tsp baking soda
1 ¼ cups flour
1/3 cup shredded unsweetened coconut


For the frosting:
1 8oz block of cream cheese
5 tbsp salted butter
1 ½ cups icing sugar
2 tsp vanilla
About ½ cup toasted sweetened coconut to add on top (don’t skip this part)

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and grease and line an 8-inch round pan with parchment paper.
2. In a bowl whisk the sugar and eggs until pale and foamy, about 2 minutes.
3. Slowly add the oil, coconut milk and vanilla and mix until smooth.
4. Add the baking powder, baking soda, salt, shredded coconut and flour and combine. Be careful not to overmix.
5. Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 30-40 minutes until a cake tester inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean.
6. After 10 minutes remove the cake from pan and let cool completely.
7. While the cake is baking, prepare the frosting. Beat the cream cheese, butter and vanilla until smooth and fluffy. Add the icing sugar slowly and continue beating until well combined. Chill in the fridge for about 20 minutes before using. Ensure that the frosting is soft (but not too soft) before frosting the cakes.
8. Top cakes with frosting using a butter knife/spatula. Decorate with toasted coconut.
