speed + nice cars + action = a movie that the hubby would love(yes, he loves the fast and furious franchise...yes, all of them!)
if you've never seen gone in 60 seconds less than 8 times (consider yourself lucky), but then you've probably never heard of eleanor. eleanor is a 1967 shelby gt that is nicolas cage's achilles heel in the movie. he is enamored with the car even though she trips him up......much like this cake does to me. (s i g h)...coconut cake.
the first time i made this cake, i dropped it on the floor after i had just finished icing it. the second time i made this cake, i didn't bother to level off the crown and the icing would not cooperate. and yet, this is the cake i want when i'm craving coconut cake and nothing else will suffice.
the frosting tastes just like a soft marshmallow and it's really cool to watch the egg whites turn into this glossy, gorgeous mess as the hot sugar heats up the egg whites and changes them...like magic! (and in spite of having dropped the cake on the ground, the frosting is actually quite resilient! God bless them southern cooks...)miss essie brazil's three-layer coconut cake
