Tom Cruise Cake Recipe (Coconut Bundt Cake)

Prepare the cake pan. Grease and flour an 8-inch bundt pan using butter and all-purpose flour and set aside. Set the oven to 350F (180C).

Combine the dry ingredients. In a medium bowl, add the flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix until combined, then set aside.

Cream the butter and sugar. In a large bowl, add the butter and sugar, then beat until fluffy and pale yellow in color.

Add the eggs one at a time, mixing until combined after every addition. Add the coconut cream, coconut extract, and vanilla extract, and mix until combined and smooth.

Mix in the dry ingredients. Add the dry ingredients to the batter in 3 additions, mixing until just combined after every addition. Make sure to scrape the sides of the bowl as you go. Gently fold in the white chocolate using a spatula or a spoon. The batter will be very fluffy and off-white.

Bake. Transfer the batter into your prepared bundt pan and use a spatula or a spoon to even out the top. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until the top looks golden and a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean with a few moist crumbs. Allow the cake to cool down in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting onto a clean plate. Meanwhile, make the frosting.

Make the frosting. In a medium bowl, add the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and coconut extract. Beat until combined and smooth. Mix in 1-2 tbsp of coconut cream or milk to thin out the frosting so you can easily pour it onto your cake and coat it completely.

Decorate. One the cake has cooled down to room temperature, pour the frosting onto the cake and use a spatula or the back of a spoon to coat it completely. Top with coconut flakes and shredded coconut make sure they stick to both the top and the sides of the cake. Serve and enjoy!
