Step-by-Step Instructions
To make this dreamy cake, start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line the bottom of your cake pans with parchment paper for easy release later. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Next, add the softened butter and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Then, gradually add the coconut milk, eggs, and vanilla extract, beating until smooth and creamy. The batter should have a lovely coconut aroma!
