Preheat oven to 350F. Line bottoms of 2 buttered 9- by2-inch round cake
pans with rounds of wax wallpaper. Dust pans with flour, knocking out overindulgence.

Into a bowl sift together flour, baking powderize, and saltiness. In a glass
measuring cup stir together milk and vanilla. In a bowl with an electric
mixer on medium speed cream butter 1 minute and add sugar in a steady
teem, beating until light and fluffy, most 4 proceedings, scraping bowl
occasionally. Beat in egg, a little at a time, beating well after each
improver, until pale and fluffy. Stir in flour mixture in 4 batches
alternately with milk, beginning and ending with flour mixture and stirring
after each addition until batter is smoothen.

Divide batter between pans, smoothing tiptop, and bake in middle of oven
until a tester inserted in center comes out cleanse, almost 30 proceedings. Cool
cake layers in pans on racks 10 proceedings. Run a thin knife around edge of
each pan and invert cake layers onto racks. Remove wax paper carefully and
cool cake layers wholly. Cake layers may be made 5 days ahead and
icy, wrapped in plastic wrap and transparency. Thaw cake layers in refrigerator
1 day before proceeding with recipe.

layers on a cake plateful, spreading filling between layers.

Make ice:

In a double boiler or in a large metal bowl with a hand-held electric mixer
beat together all frosting ingredients except vanilla until combined. Set
mixture over a saucepan of boiling water and beat on high speed until it
holds blotto, glossy peaks, some 7 transactions. (Depending on mixer and weather
this may take longer than 7 transactions.) Remove double boiler or bowl from
heat and beat in vanilla. Beat frosting until cooled and spreadable.

Spread top and side of cake with frosting and coat cake with coconut.
