Instructions:

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans or line them with parchment paper.

Prepare the Cake Batter: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.

Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.

Alternate Mixing: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter and sugar mixture, alternating with the coconut milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix.

Add Shredded Coconut: Gently fold in the shredded coconut into the cake batter.

Bake the Cakes: Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans. Smooth the tops with a spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The baking time might vary, so keep an eye on them.

Cool the Cakes: Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for about 10 minutes, then remove them from the pans and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Prepare the Frosting: In a mixing bowl, beat the softened butter until creamy. Gradually add the powdered sugar, coconut milk, and vanilla extract. Beat until the frosting is smooth and creamy.

Assemble the Cake: Place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread a layer of coconut frosting over the top. Place the second cake layer on top. Frost the top and sides of the cake with the remaining coconut frosting.

Decorate: Sprinkle the shredded coconut over the frosted cake or you can also make some flower decoration on top of cake with the help of piping bag. You can press the coconut gently onto the sides for better adherence.
