Instructions
Lamington Cake:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and spray a 9x5 loaf pan with baking spray.
- In a large bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and coconut to combine.
- To your stand mixer add the butter, sugar, and vanilla extract on medium speed until light and fluffy, 1-2 minutes.
- Add in the egg one at a time on low speed until creamy.
- In small increments add the dry mixture to the stand mixer, alternating it with milk on the lowest speed setting.
- Pour batter into the loaf pan and bake for 45-50 minutes or till the toothpick comes out clean.
- Let cool completely.
Chocolate Glaze
- Add chocolate and butter to a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second increments until smooth and creamy, stirring well each time.
To finish:
- Cut the cake in half horizontally using a sharp serrated knife.
- Spread the strawberry jam on the bottom half of the cake.
- Top with the second half of the cake and press down lightly.
- Apply the chocolate all over the cake using a pastry brush, on all the sides.
- Sprinkle the coconut on top and all the sides when the chocolate layer is still wet.
- Let chocolate and coconut set in the refrigerator before slicing, about 10 minutes.
