Steps:
- For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with parchment, leaving about 4 inches of overhang on the long sides. Generously grease the parchment with the butter.
- In a stand mixer on low speed, beat the cake mix, water, oil, eggs and mashed bananas for 30 seconds. Raise the speed to medium and beat for another 2 minutes, scraping down the bowl as necessary.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool.
- Using the parchment "handles," remove the cake to platter. With a fork, poke holes every 1/2 inch in the top of the cake.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the condensed milk, coconut cream and whipping cream and then pour evenly over the top of the cake. Cover and refrigerate until the mixture is absorbed into the cake, at least 2 hours and up to 4 hours.
- For the frosting: In a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whip the cream to soft peaks. Turn off the mixer and add the coconut cream, powdered sugar and vanilla. Whip until stiff peaks form.
- Spread the frosting over the cake and garnish with the toasted coconut chips. Store loosely covered in the refrigerator.
This Coconut Lime Tres Leches Cake is a unique take on the traditional Mexican cake. It's a sweet, moist cake with a velvety texture, a delicious milky syrup and coconut lime twist. Garnished with coconut and festive rainbow sprinkles, it's perfect for your Cinco de Mayo celebration!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 8 x 8-inch can pan with non-stick cooking spray or use Wilton Cake Release (see post)
- Stir flour with baking powder in a medium bowl.
- In a separate medium mixing bowl, beat egg whites, using an electric mixer on high, until foamy.
- Gradually add about a 1/4 of the sugar and continue beating whites until stiff peaks form when beaters are lifted, 2 to 3 minutes. (see directions in post Videos)
- Using same beaters (no need to wash), in another separate large mixing bowl, beat yolks with remaining sugar until pale yellow, 1 to 2 minutes. Reduce mixer speed to low.
- Gradually beat in flour mixture, then milk and 1/2 tsp vanilla, until smooth. Blend in lime zest and rum.
- Stir a third of egg whites into yolk mixture, using a rubber spatula, then carefully fold in remaining egg whites until no streaks remain. Pour into prepared pan.

COCONUT TRES LECHES CAKE
Tres Leches Cake, popularized in many Latin countries, is one of my favorite cakes; sweet, super moist and rich, but not heavy. It's typically made with a yellow or white cake that gets soaked with three types of milk: evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk and whole milk or cream, and topped with fluffy whipped cream. I wanted to make a non-dairy version, so I went with a blend of almond and coconut milk and topped it with coconut whipped topping. It gives this cake a tasty and unique flavor twist. I also opted for a box cake mix for the batter to save time. I hope you love it as much as I do!

Steps:
- Bake the cake in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish, following the package instructions. Let cool for 30 minutes.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the almond milk, sweetened condensed coconut milk, coconut milk and vanilla.
- Poke holes all over the cake. Pour the milk mixture over the top, a little at a time, letting it soak, so that the liquid doesn't overflow. Cover and let soak in the refrigerator for at least 10 or up to 24 hours. (The cake should have absorbed all of the liquid, and there should be no liquid pooled on the top or sides.)
- Spread the whipped cream evenly over the cake, then sprinkle the toasted coconut all over the top. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
COCONUT TRES LECHES CAKE
My other half and I were holding a pozole party for our friends and as making something as authentically Mexican as pozole is his domain, he asked me to make dessert. I got hung up deciding between whether to make a coconut pound cake or a tres leches cake. In the end, I combined the two ideas and came out with a coconut tres leches laced with dark rum. This cake *is* as good as it sounds. It's very rich with just the right amount of coconut that even our guests who didn't like coconut loved this cake.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 325°F Spray non-stick baking spray on 3 round cake pans. Separate eggs, and place yolks in a large mixing bowl. Reserve whites in a separate mixing bowl.
- Add sugar to yolks, and beat on high speed with an electric mixer until pale yellow and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Clean beaters, and whip egg whites to medium peaks, about 5 minutes.
- Using a rubber spatula, stir about 1/3 of the egg whites into the yolk mixture to lighten it. Then gently fold in remaining whites.
- Whisk flour with a dry whisk to aerate and break up any lumps, then sprinkle it over egg mixture. Use a rubber spatula to gently fold flour into egg mixture, just until there are no more white flour streaks. Don't overmix.
- Pour batter into the prepared cake pans, and bake until cakes are puffed and golden and the edges pull away from the sides of the pans, about 20 to 25 minutes.
- Remove cakes from the oven and place on a wire cooling rack. Allow to cool for a bit before trying to turn them out. When turning them out of the pan if they stick a bit gently run a knife around the edge of the cake to free it from the pan.
- Once the cakes are turned out, with a toothpick, poke holes all over the cakes (A LOT OF HOLES). Allow to cool for 15 minutes.
- In the meantime, in a medium bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, the evaporated milk, the coconut cream and 1/4 cup rum.
- Take the bottom cake layer and place it on a large plate or cake plate (you can't move this cake once it's assembled, so pick something with a little room around the edges because some liquid will collect at the bottom.).
- Pour 1 cup of the milk mixture over the layer. Then sprinkle the top of the layer with flaked coconut and add second layer. Pour 1 cup of milk mixture over the layer, sprinkle with flaked coconut and add the final layer. For the final layer, pour the rest of the mixture over the entire cake.
- Continue cooling cake, about 45 minutes more, spoon any collected milk mixture back onto the cake and then cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.
- To decorate, whip cream, powdered sugar and 4 tablespoons of rum to medium peaks (you want it to be relatively stiff.).
- Gently ice cake with the whipped cream. The cake will be very soft, so use care to avoid damaging the layers.
- Toast flaked coconut in a large frying pan over medium heat. Cook, stirring often, until coconut is lightly toasted and browned. If coconut begins to burn, reduce heat. Remove from the pan immediately.
- Sprinkle toasted coconut in a layer on the top of the cake. Then garnish with chopped mango, strawberry, kiwi and any other fruit you like.

COCONUT TRES LECHES CAKE
This supereasy cake is soaked with a milky mixture laced with dark rum and coconut milk. Best if made before you want to serve it-the longer it sits, the better it gets. And don't skip the toasted coconut! Cook time does not include the 1 hour for cooling and the 4 hours required for soaking the cake with the milk/rum mixture.
