WHAT DOES CEVICHE MEAN IN SPANISH RECIPES

Steps:

• Heat your oven to 350 degrees F.
• Grease 3 8-inch round cake pans and line the bottoms with parchment paper. Spray the parchment with spray oil.
• In a food processor, pulse the coconut for about 30 seconds.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer, using the paddle attachment, cream the butter on high for one minute. Scrape down the bowl.
• With the mixer on medium, add the sugar, oil, vanilla, and coconut extract, and beat for about five minutes until light and fluffy.
• Lower the speed to medium low and add the eggs and egg yolks, one at a time, until each is incorporated.
• In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
• Add 1/3 of the flour mixture to the bowl of the stand mixer and mix on low until incorporated. Add 1/2 of the coconut milk and mix on low. Repeat with 1/3 of the flour mixture, the coconut milk, and the rest of the flour.
• Fold in the coconut.
• Divide the batter among the cake pans and tap the pans on the counter to remove any air bubbles.
• Bake the cake layers for 25 to 35 minutes, until a tester comes out clean.
• Cool completely in the pans on a wire rack.
• Turn out the cake layers and place one on a wire rack on a parchment lined quarter sheet pan.
• Spread half of the pecan filling over the cake layer, spreading it all the way to the edge. Place the next layer over the filling and repeat with the rest of the filling. Top with the third layer.
• Coat the cake with 1 cup of the cooled ganache (it should be a spreadable consistency) for a crumb coat.
• Rewarm the rest of the ganache to pourable consistency and pour it over the cake. Once the frosting has set, move the cake to a serving platter.
• Fill a piping bag with a small star tip with leftover ganache and pie the top and bottom with with "shells" (optional).
