Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 cups Unsalted butter
• 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
• 2 Eggs
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 0.75 cups Coconut milk
• 1 cup Fresh mango puree
• 0.5 cups Shredded sweetened coconut
• 8 ounces Cream cheese
• 1 cup Powdered sugar
• 0.5 cups Heavy cream
• 1 cup Sliced fresh mango
• 0.5 cups Toasted coconut flakes

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 8-inch round cake pans.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter and granulated sugar together using an electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.

Step 4

Add the eggs one at a time to the butter mixture, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.

Step 5

Alternately add the dry ingredients and coconut milk to the wet ingredients, starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Beat until just combined.

Step 6

Gently fold in the fresh mango puree and shredded sweetened coconut until evenly incorporated.

Step 7

Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans. Smooth the tops with a spatula.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Step 9

Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

While the cakes are cooling, prepare the frosting. Beat the cream cheese and powdered sugar together in a medium bowl until smooth. Gradually add the heavy cream while mixing until the frosting becomes light and fluffy.

Step 11

Place one cooled cake layer on a serving plate. Spread a layer of frosting evenly over the top, then add a thin layer of sliced fresh mango.

Step 12

Place the second cake layer on top. Frost the top and sides of the cake with the remaining cream cheese frosting.

Step 13

Garnish with toasted coconut flakes and additional mango slices as desired.

Step 14

Chill the assembled cake in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. Slice and enjoy!
