I was afraid the cake mixture would be too liquidy and not bake right with the cream of coconut and sour cream but it turned out great! Cream of coconut is pretty thick so I guess that helped. And I wouldn't recommend light or nonfat sour cream because those will be runnier than regular.
This is the most delicious cake I have ever baked. Tried it once and shared it with my staff. Have had (7) request to bake this cake for others, Everyone thought it was homemade. I failed to tell them the truth. Made (3) 8 inch layers. Made cream cheese frosting and covered with coconut. Delicious!
What is cream of coconut and where do you buy cream of coconut?
