Coconut Layer Cake

My rating goes into two parts. The cake: It had the coconut flavor that I was looking for, buuuuuuuuuuut it turned out a bit on the dry side. I usually underbake my cakes for a few minutes, so I don't risk dry cakes. I must've missed something. It wasn't horribly dry, but didn't have that tender crumb I love so much, in a white cake. Maybe I should dry cake flour, next time? The frosting: Wow! I had never made a Swiss Buttercream before, and it was a success. This is so different to a classic buttercream, because it's not as sweet. Excellent! Loved the toasted coconut and the tip for placing the cake over a baking sheet so I can scoop up the coconut flakes and pressing them into the cake. It's a stunner!
