Does anyone have a recipe for hauipa cake?

1录 hours 30 min prep


Change to: cake US Metric


1 (18 ounce) box white cake mix


1 cup coconut milk, divided


2/3 cup water


2 egg whites


1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin


2 cups heavy cream


6 tablespoons sugar


1 teaspoon lemon extract


shredded coconut (amount needed to sprinkle over entire cake)


Haupia Filling


1 cup sugar


1/2 teaspoon salt


6 tablespoons cornstarch


1 cup water


4 cups coconut milk


2 teaspoons vanilla





MAKE CAKE %26amp; WHIPPED CREAM FROSTING: Preheat oven according to directions on cake mix. Grease and flour two 8 or 9-inch round cake pans.


Prepare the cake according to the package directions, using 2/3 cup of the coconut milk, water, and egg whites.


When cakes are finished baking, cool and cut each cake horizontally into 2 layers. If your top layers are mound-shaped, cut them so they are flat. (If your layers aren't flat, your filling/frosting will seep off the cake and you'll have a mess.)


Soften gelatin in remaining 1/3 cup of coconut milk. Dissolve over hot water. Cool completely.


In a bowl, whip the heavy cream. Fold the gelatin mixture, sugar, and extract into the whipped cream. Chill frosting until it is of spreading consistency.


MAKE HAUPIA FILLING: In a small bowl, mix together the sugar, salt, cornstarch and water. Set aside.


In a saucepan, heat the coconut milk. When hot, add the sugar mixture. Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens. Remove from heat. Stir in vanilla and cool.


Chill the filling until it is of spreading consistency.


ASSEMBLE THE CAKE: Spread the Haupia Filling between each cake layer (spread it on pretty thickly, about 1/2'; thick or so). You'll have the following layers: cake, filling, cake, filling, cake, filling, cake.


Refrigerate assembled cake until set.


Frost entire cake with whipped cream mixture. Sprinkle coconut all over the cake sides and top.


Keep refrigerated until ready to serve.

Comments:


Lots of work but oh so ono!





Well, I finally tried the haupia cake recipe I submitted, and it turned out pretty well. I just wanted to add a few notes to it:





1. The recipe is enough to make a single layer 9x13 cake. So to


make layers, double the recipe or use smaller pans


proportionately.


2. Chill the haupia filling before spreading. I didn't and it kinda


gooped all over. If you chill it you can make the filling much


thicker (both in consistency and dimension).


3. Chill the frosting before spreading too.


4. If your lower layers aren't flat, use a knife to cut it flat.


The filling doesn't sit on a rounded cake well.
