A light, fluffy cake bursting with tropical coconut sweetness, subtle pistachio nuttiness, and creamy pudding baked into every bite. Perfect for parties and celebrations.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box of white cake mix
  • 1 box of pistachio pudding mix (instant)
  • 4 large eggs (room temperature)
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup shredded sweetened coconut
  • 1 cup heavy cream (cold)
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup shredded sweetened coconut (for topping)
  • 1/4 cup chopped pistachios (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease your baking pan(s) with butter or non-stick spray. Lightly dust with flour for easy release.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the white cake mix and pistachio pudding mix. Stir to combine.
  3. Add the eggs, water, and vegetable oil to the dry mixture. Use an electric mixer or whisk to beat on medium speed for 2 minutes until the batter is smooth.
  4. Fold in the shredded coconut using a spatula, making sure it’s evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared pan(s) and smooth the top with a spatula.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely before frosting.
  8. To make the frosting, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract together until soft peaks form. Spread evenly over the cooled cake.
  9. Sprinkle the shredded coconut and chopped pistachios over the top for decoration.
  10. Slice and serve immediately, or refrigerate for an hour to let the flavors meld even more.

Notes

Make sure eggs are at room temperature for better blending. Avoid overmixing to keep the cake fluffy. Chill frosting bowl and beaters for better whipped cream texture.
