The Easter Coco-Bunny

This coconut cake I made for Easter was very pretty, but not very good. So, I'm not even listing the recipe. Here are the pretty, pretty pictures, though. However, the Seven-Minute Frosting was good; I'll post that.





Seven-Minute Frosting
Makes frosting for 2 layers

2 egg whites
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/3 cup water
1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon salt

Beat egg white, sugar, cream of tartar, water, and salt in the top of a double boiler, using an electric mixer at top speed.

After one minute, cook over boiling water while continuing to beat with the mixer. Continue cooking and beating the mixture until firm enough to hold peaks.

Remove from heat, beat in the vanilla, and beat until thick enough to spread well.
