Инструкции

  1. Preheat oven to 350 F.
  2. Spray two 9" cake pans with Baker's Joy.
  3. In large mixing bowl, take egg whites at room temperature and beat until fluffy. Add water, oil and extract. Beat well.
  4. Slowly add cake mix and beat until incorporated-about 4-5 minutes. Fold dried strawberries into cake.
  5. Pour batter evenly into pans and tap against counter to remove air bubbles. Bake for 24-26 minutes or until a cake tester inserted comes out clean.
  6. Allow cakes to cool in pan for about 10 minutes, remove to cooling rack. Allow to cool completely while you're making the frosting.
  7. Incorporate shortening, bourbon and coconut extract with electric mixer until well mixed. Slowly add powdered sugar until mixed. Use water as needed to loosen up the frosting. Beat 3-4 minutes until frosting is fluffy and light.
  8. Frost the top of the bottom layer, add second layer. Place a small amount of frosting on the cake to prevent crumbs from sticking to your frosting. Allow to air dry for 5-10 minutes then frost with remaining frosting. Apply coconut flakes to frosting top and sides.
