Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 0.75 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 1.5 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- 0.5 cup vegetable oil
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup boiling water
- 1.5 cups sweetened shredded coconut
- 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans, or line them with parchment paper circles.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
Add the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix on medium speed until the batter is smooth and fully combined.
Stir in the boiling water gradually. The batter will become thin, but this is normal.
In a separate bowl, prepare the filling by mixing the shredded coconut and sweetened condensed milk until evenly combined.
Divide the chocolate batter evenly between the prepared cake pans. Dollop spoonfuls of the coconut mixture onto the top of the batter in both pans, spreading it gently to create a thin layer.
Bake the cakes in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the chocolate portion comes out clean.
Remove the cakes from the oven and let them cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the cakes are cool, melt the chocolate chips in the microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring between each interval until smooth.
Drizzle the melted chocolate over the tops of the cakes as a glaze, or spread it with an offset spatula for a more even finish.
Layer the two cakes if desired for a double-layer Chocaroon Cake, or serve them individually.
Slice and serve! Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
