By using our free meal planner (and the rest of spoonacular.com) you have to agree that you and only you are responsible for anything that happens to you because of something you have read on this site or have bought/cooked/eaten because of this site. After all, the only person who controls what you put in your mouth is you, right?

Spoonacular is a recipe search engine that sources recipes from across the web. We do our best to find recipes suitable for many diets — whether vegetarian, vegan, gluten free, dairy free, etc. — but we cannot guarantee that a recipe's ingredients are safe for your diet. Always read ingredient lists from the original source (follow the link from the "Instructions" field) in case an ingredient has been incorrectly extracted from the original source or has been labeled incorrectly in any way. Moreover, it is important that you always read the labels on every product you buy to see if the product could cause an allergic reaction or if it conflicts with your personal or religious beliefs. If you are still not sure after reading the label, contact the manufacturer.

We also attempt to estimate the cost and calculate the nutritional information for the recipes found on our site. Again, we cannot guarantee the accuracy of this information. Additionally, our nutrition visualizer that suggests that you limit sodium, sugar, etc., and get enough protein, vitamins, and minerals is not intended as medical advice. Similarly, our health tips are based on articles we have read from various sources across the web, and are not based on any medical training. The team behind spoonacular does not possess any medical qualifications and the information may be found to be incorrect or out of date based on future research. If you need help planning your diet or determining which foods (and recipes) are safe for you, contact a registered dietitian, allergist, or another medical professional.

Cream Sherry, Alcoholic Drink, and Ingredient are my top picks for Coconut Cake. A common wine pairing rule is to make sure your wine is sweeter than your food. Delicate desserts go well with Moscato d'Asti, nutty desserts with cream sherry, and caramel or chocolate desserts pair well with port. You could try NV Solera Cream Sherry. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 17 dollars per bottle.

NV Solera Cream Sherry

The Solera Cream Sherry has a brilliant amber and deep copper hue. With butterscotch and pecan aromas, the sweet salted nut and brown spice aromas carry a complex caramel accent. A sweet entry leads to a rounded, lush, moderately full-bodied palate with a lengthy, flavorful finish.

Instructions

Grease 2 cake pans dust with flour In a large bowl, beat egg whites and whole egg with a fork. Add coconut milk, vanilla and coconut extract and stir until well combined. Combine sugar, flour, baking powder and salt. Add butter to dry ingredients one small piece at a time and beat until resembles coarse meal with pea-sized bits. Using a mixer, add one cup of the coconut milk mixture and beat until light and fluffy. Beat in the remaining coconut milk mixture. Add the dessicated coconut to the batter and combine well. Pour batter into cake pans and bake at 325 degrees (160 C) until golden brown. Cool, remove from pans and frost with coconut buttercream icing. FOR BUTTERCREAM: -Combine egg whites, granulated sugar and salt in a bowl and set the bowl over a saucepan containing 1 1/2 inches of simmering water. Whisk constantly until mixture is opaque and registers about 120 degrees on a candy thermometer (about 2 minutes). Remove bowl from heat and using a mixer, beat on high speed until the mixture is barely warm (about 80 degrees). This should take about 7 minutes. Reduce speed to medium and add butter one piece at a time. Beat in coconut extract and coconut milk. Beat in powdered sugar and dessicated coconut.
