Yo's Coconut Cream Filling

Delicious Coconut Cream Filling

Get The Cakebook!

Now, you know this island girl loves coconut. So when I thought about making a Giant Coconut Donut Cake, I just knew it needed a rich creamy filling. Donut let me discourage you from incorporating this filling into other recipes - this Coconut Cream Filling is a great baking go-to. So think outside the donut box. ;)

*Notes:

-To give this recipe plenty of time to chill, I would recommend making it the day before filling your bakes.*

-This recipe isn't suitable for stacking your cakes with, and should ONLY be used as a filling. Nobody likes a sloppy mess ;)

**Tips: To keep my bowl steady I like to place a damp cloth underneath tucked around the bottom edges. This stops it from moving around on the counter while so you can concentrate on pouring and whisking steadily.**
