Prepare the Batter<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in sour cream (or yogurt) and vanilla.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>2. Combine Dry Ingredients<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually fold into the wet mixture until just combined. For extra nostalgia, stir in shredded coconut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>3. Bake the Cake<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pour batter into a greased 9\u00d713-inch pan. Bake at 350\u00b0F (175\u00b0C) for 35\u201340 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>4. Add the Glaze<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mix powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth. Drizzle over the warm cake so it soaks in slightly. Sprinkle a little extra sugar or coconut on top for that signature finish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>5. Serve and Enjoy<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let the cake cool slightly, slice into squares, and serve warm or at room temperature. It\u2019s just as good the next day\u2014if it lasts that long.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[adinserter block=&#8221;7&#8243;]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[adinserter block=&#8221;5&#8243;] Ingredients You\u2019ll Need [adinserter block=&#8221;6&#8243;] For the Glaze: How to Make It 1.
