Steps:
- Begin by preheating your oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans and set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, add the white cake mix, strawberry gelatin powder, all-purpose flour, and baking soda. Whisk to combine. Next beat in the oil, eggs, milk, pureed strawberries, vanilla, and coconut extract. Then stir in the chopped coconut.
- Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared pans. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center of each layer comes out clean.
- Cool the pans on a wire rack for about 10 minutes. Remove the cake from the pans and leave it on the racks until it is completely cool.
- While the cake cools, make your cream cheese frosting. Prepare as directed, but mix in 1/2 cup of chopped coconut.
- Once the cakes are cool, spread a layer of frosting onto the top of one cake. Top with sliced strawberries. Place the second layer of cake on top of that and frost the rest of the cake. Garnish with fresh strawberries.

Steps:
- For the cake:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F. Liberally prepare 3 9-inch round pans with the nonstick method of your choice.
- In the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, cream together the granulated sugar and butter on medium-high speed until nice and fluffy, about 6 minutes.
- Meanwhile, place the strawberries in your food processor and purée until smooth. Set aside.
- With your stand mixer running, add the eggs 1 at a time, combining well after each addition and scraping down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed.
- Change your mixer speed to medium-low and add the strawberry purée slowly into the batter. Continue mixing while you tend to the dry ingredients.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Slowly add ½ of the flour mixture to your stand mixer bowl. Continue to mix on low speed to combine.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the sour cream and oil and add to your stand mixer bowl.
- Pour in the remaining flour mixture and continue to mix on low until well incorporated. Add the vanilla extract, strawberry extract, and food coloring, if using. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl and mix the batter until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Evenly pour the batter into the prepared pans and bake for 23 to 28 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a layer comes out clean.
- Let the layers cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then invert onto wire racks. Let cool to room temperature. Lightly cover the layers with foil or plastic wrap so they do not dry out.
- For the frosting:
- Clean your stand mixer bowl and whisk attachment. Beat the cream cheese on high speed until it begins to thicken and become fluffy.
- Turn your mixer down to low speed and carefully add the confectioners' sugar. Once the sugar is fully incorporated, turn your mixer speed back to high and continue whipping.
- Add the heavy cream; vanilla extract; coconut extract, if using; and salt and continue to mix until a smooth, light, and fluffy frosting is achieved.
- To assemble:
- Once the layers are completely cooled, place 1 layer on a serving plate. Spread just the top of the layer with ⅓ of the frosting. Add the second layer and spread with another ⅓ of the frosting. Add the final layer, bottom-side up, and spread with the remaining frosting. Frost the top and the side of the cake. Gently pat the side and the top of the cake with coconut flakes. Serve at room temperature.
NO-BAKE COCONUT CREAM PIE WITH STRAWBERRIES AND PINEAPPLE
When I was researching pie recipes for my upcoming cookbook, I asked my social media followers if they had any regional specialties I may not have heard of. I received five requests for a pie with a coconut custard, pineapple topping, toasted macadamia nuts and fresh strawberries. I'd never had the combination before, but it's a match made in summery pie heaven -- and made even better with a hefty dollop of whipped cream atop each slice.

Steps:
- For the crust: In the bowl of a food processor, pulse the wafer cookies, macadamia nuts, granulated sugar and salt together until the mixture forms fine crumbs. Add the melted butter and pulse until the mixture is evenly combined.
- Press the crust into a 9-inch pie plate and transfer to the freezer until firm (at least 1 hour and up to overnight).
- For the filling: In a medium pot, heat the coconut milk and whole milk together over medium heat. In a small bowl, whisk the granulated sugar, cornstarch, salt, egg and egg yolk to combine. When the milk mixture comes to a simmer, pour about 1/4 of it into the sugar/egg mixture, whisking constantly.
- Return this mixture to the pot and continue to cook over medium-low heat until the mixture thickens and large bubbles pop up from the center of the pot, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the butter, vanilla and shredded coconut. Pour the mixture into the frozen pie crust, cover directly with plastic wrap and refrigerate to cool completely.
- For the toppings: In a medium pot, stir together the crushed pineapple, light brown sugar, cornstarch and salt to combine. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens, 3 to 4 minutes. Cool completely, then pour on top of the chilled pie. Sprinkle the macadamia nuts in an even layer on top of the pie. (The pie can be made up to this point 24 hours ahead of time.)
- When ready to serve, toss the strawberries and honey together in a medium bowl. Arrange in an even layer on top of the pie. Serve slices with whipped cream.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease 2 (9-inch) round cake pans, then line them parchment paper. Grease them again and dust lightly with flour.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar on medium-high speed for 3 to 5 minutes, until light yellow and fluffy. Crack the eggs into a small bowl. With the mixer on medium speed, add the eggs 1 at a time, scraping down the bowl once during mixing. Add the vanilla and almond extracts and mix well. The mixture might look curdled; don't be concerned.
- In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. With the mixer on low speed, alternately add the dry ingredients and the milk to the batter in 3 parts, beginning and ending with dry ingredients. Mix until just combined. Fold in the 4 ounces of coconut with a rubber spatula.
- Pour the batter evenly into the 2 pans and smooth the top with a knife. Bake in the center of the oven for 45 to 55 minutes, until the tops are browned and a cake tester comes out clean. Cool on a baking rack for 30 minutes, then turn the cakes out onto a baking rack to finish cooling.
- For the frosting, in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, combine the cream cheese, butter, vanilla and almond extract on low speed. Add the confectioners' sugar and mix until just smooth (don't whip!).
- To assemble, place 1 layer on a flat serving plate, top side down, and spread with frosting. Place the second layer on top, top side up, and frost the top and sides. To decorate the cake, sprinkle the top with coconut and lightly press more coconut onto the sides. Serve at room temperature.

Steps:
- To make cake: Place oven rack in bottom third of oven; heat oven to 350 degrees. Spray two 8-inch cake pans with nonstick cooking spray. Line bottom of each pan with a circle of parchment paper, spray the paper and dust inside of each pan with all-purpose flour, tapping out excess.
- Sift together cake flour, baking powder and salt; set aside.
- In bowl of electric mixer with paddle attachment, cream butter at medium speed until soft and light. Add sugar and continue to mix about 5 minutes or until light and fluffy. Add egg yolks one at a time, beating after each addition until completely mixed.
- On low speed, alternately add flour mixture in 3 additions and coconut milk in 2 additions, beginning and ending with flour mixture. Add extract and beat at low speed until completely mixed.
- In clean bowl with whisk attachment, beat egg whites at high speed to soft peaks. Gently fold one third of the egg whites into the batter; fold in remaining egg whites gently but thoroughly. Divide batter between prepared cake pans and bake about 35 minutes or until cake springs back when touched and toothpick inserted into center comes out clean.
- Cool on rack 5 minutes; run a small knife around edge of each pan and carefully invert cake onto rack. Remove pan and cool cake completely; remove paper before assembling cake.
- To make icing: In small saucepan combine sugar, water and cream of tartar. Bring to a boil, covered, over medium heat; do not stir. When sugar is completely dissolved, uncover and boil 5 minutes longer.
- In bowl of electric mixer with whisk attachment, beat egg whites at high speed to soft peaks. Continue to beat while slowly pouring hot syrup onto egg whites; add extract and beat until cool.
- To assemble cake: Spread 1/4 cup of the preserves on top of 1 cake layer. Thinly slice 2 cups of the strawberries and arrange in 1 layer on top of preserves. Spread remaining 1/4 cup preserves on bottom of second cake layer and invert onto first layer. Spread icing on top and sides of assembled layers; pat coconut onto sides of cake. Arrange remaining strawberries on top of cake, stem side down.
- Tips: Substitute white cake made from a mix; add 1/2 teaspoon of coconut extract to batter. Substitute pre-made white frosting; add coconut extract to taste.
