Instructions to make Coconut Layer Cake FUSF:

1. Preheat oven to 350. Grease 3 9 inch round cake pans, line with parchment paper, grease again and then dust with flour.
2. In bowl of electric mixer fitted with paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar on medium speed for 3-5 minutes, until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, scraping sides of bowl. Add vanilla and coconut extracts and mix well. Don't worry if it looks curdled.
3. In separate bowl, sift dry ingredients together. On low speed, alternate adding dry ingredients to mixing bowl with coconut milk. Begin and end with dry ingredients. Mix just until combined. Fold in coconut with rubber spatula.
4. Pour batter evenly into pans and smooth the tops. Bake in center of oven for 40-45 minutes, until lightly browned and cake tester comes out clean. Cool on rack for 20 minutes, then turn out of pans onto cooling rack.
5. In bowl of mixer fitted with paddle attachment, cream butter, cream cheese and extracts on low speed until thoroughly combined. Add confectioners sugar one cup at a time. Mix in each cup on low speed, then turn speed to high for 10 seconds. Repeat this step for each cup of sugar added.
6. Once cake is thoroughly cooled, place on cake round and spread lemon curd on each layer. Frost sides and top with frosting. Cover top and sides with coconut, pressing in slightly to make coconut adhere. Refrigerate until 1 hour before serving.

Top with the third cake layer. Spread the remaining frosting all over the top and sides. Three towering layers of Ultra-Moist coconut cake are filled with clouds of creamy coconut mousse made with real coconut milk. Snowy flaked coconut surrounds and tops this heavenly experience. Coconut cake is a southern tradition (just like this Hummingbird Cake!) and I love my grandma's version.

Learn How to Elevate Your Mood with Food

Many of us have been trained to think that comfort foods are bad and are to be avoided. At times, if your comfort food is a sugary food or another junk food, this is very true. Other times, though, comfort foods can be altogether nutritious and it’s good for you to consume them. There are some foods that actually can improve your moods when you consume them. When you are feeling a little down and need an emotional pick-me-up, test out a couple of these.

Eggs, would you believe, are fantastic for helping you combat depression. Just be sure that you don’t get rid of the yolk. Every time you wish to cheer yourself up, the egg yolk is the most important part of the egg. Eggs, the egg yolks in particular, are high in B vitamins. These B vitamins are great for helping to improve your mood. This is because they increase the function of your brain’s neural transmitters (the parts of the brain that affect how you feel). Consume an egg and feel better!

Build a trail mix out of seeds and/or nuts. Your mood can be raised by eating peanuts, almonds, cashews, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, etcetera. This is possible since these foods have a bunch of magnesium which boosts your production of serotonin. Serotonin is a feel-good chemical that dictates to the brain how to feel at any given time. The more serotonin you have, the better you are going to feel. Not just that, nuts, in particular, are a great source of protein.

If you would like to battle depression, try consuming some cold water fish. Cold water fish like tuna, trout and wild salmon are high in DHA and omega-3s. These are two substances that increase the quality and function of the grey matter in your brain. It’s true: eating a tuna fish sandwich can greatly raise your mood.

Some grains are really great for driving away bad moods. Quinoa, millet, teff and barley are all actually excellent for helping increase your happiness levels. These grains fill you up better and that can help elevate your moods also. Feeling starved can actually make you feel awful! These grains can help your mood elevate as it’s easy for your body to digest them. They are simpler to digest than other foods which helps bring up your blood sugar levels and that, in turn, improves your mood.

Your mood can truly be helped by green tea. You just knew it had to be in here somewhere, right? Green tea has a lot of an amino acid referred to as L-theanine. Research has found that this amino acid stimulates the production of brain waves. This helps improve your mental acuity while having a relaxing effect on the rest of your body. You knew green tea could help you become healthier. Now you are aware that green tea helps you to raise your moods as well!

As you can see, you don’t need to eat junk food or foods that are terrible for you just so to feel better! Test out these suggestions instead!
