Soon after having my first baby, my husband and I went to my mother-in-law's home for Sunday lunch. (My baby girl (Rachel) was about 2 or 3 weeks old so this was shortly after Thanksgiving, 1988.) My MiL served this beautiful, snow white, coconut cake and it was out of this world delicously moist! If you haven't ever tried this easy to create cake, you really should! You will agree it must go down as one of the best coconut cakes you've ever had! Yet, it is easy to make!
