Description

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups All-purpose Flour (Swap with gluten-free flour blend if needed.)
  • 2 teaspoons Baking Powder (Ensure it’s fresh for best results.)
  • 1 teaspoon Salt (A small pinch goes a long way.)
  • 1 cup Coconut Milk (Almond milk is a great dairy-free alternative.)
  • 1 cup Granulated Sugar (Coconut sugar is a more natural substitute.)
  • 3 large Large Eggs (Use flax eggs for a vegan option.)
  • 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter (Coconut oil can maintain tropical essence.)
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract (Higher quality enhances flavor.)
  • 2 cups Fresh Ripe Mangoes (Choose sweet, fragrant fruit for best results.)
  • 2 tablespoons Lime Juice (Can be omitted for a sweeter cake.)
  • 8 ounces Cream Cheese (Use dairy-free cream cheese for vegan option.)
  • 2 cups Powdered Sugar (Adjust to taste.)
  • 1 cup Shredded Coconut (Toasting enhances flavor.)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until there are no lumps.
  3. In another bowl, cream together the softened unsalted butter and granulated sugar until fluffy, then add the eggs one at a time, mixing in the vanilla extract.
  4. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, alternating with the coconut milk.
  5. Blend ripe mangoes with lime juice until pureed.
  6. Pour half of the batter into the prepared pan, add half of the mango puree, then repeat and swirl gently.
  7. Bake for approximately 45 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Allow to cool.
  8. Blend cream cheese until smooth, then add powdered sugar and fold in shredded coconut to make frosting.
  9. Frost the cooled cake and add mango slices and toasted coconut flakes.
