 Categories: Cakes, Desserts
      Yield: 12 servings
 
      1    Heart-Shaped Coconut Cake
      1    Heart-Shaped Banana Cake

MMMMM-------------------CREAM CHEESE FROSTING------------------------
  1 1/2 c  Unsalted butter; in pieces,
           - room temp
     24 oz Cream cheese; room temp
      3 c  Confectioners' sugar;
           - sifted
      1 tb Pure vanilla extract

MMMMM-------------------COLORED FLAKED COCONUT------------------------
           Powdered food coloring
      4 c  Coconut flakes
 
  With an electric mixer on medium-high speed, beat butter
  and cream cheese until fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Reduce
  speed to low. Add sugar, 1/2 cup at a time, and then
  vanilla, and mix until smooth and combined, scraping
  down sides of bowl as needed. If not using immediately,
  frosting can be refrigerated up to 3 days in an airtight
  container; before using, bring to room temperature, and
  beat on low speed until smooth again.
  
  Place food coloring in a resealable plastic bag. Add
  coconut flakes. Shake bag to evenly coat coconut with
  food coloring. Use immediately.
  
  Using a serrated knife, trim top of coconut cake to make
  level. Place coconut cake, trimmed side up, on a cake
  turntable or serving plate, and spread with about 2 cups
  frosting. Top with banana cake. Using an offset spatula,
  spread remaining frosting over entire cake. Sprinkle the
  top and sides with coconut. Cake can be kept
  refrigerated, covered with a cake dome, for up to 3
  days.
