Ingredients
  • 2 cup Unbleached flour
  • 1 3/4 cup Granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup Cocoa powder; sifted
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Baking soda
  • 2 teaspoon Vanilla
  • 3/4 cup Cold water
  • 1/2 cup Margarine; softened
  • 1/2 cup Sour cream
  • 3 Egg Whites; at room
Directions
  1. 1
    Preheat the oven to 350ðF (175ðC). Grease a 12-cup Bundt pan with cooking spray and dust lightly with flour, tapping out any excess.
  2. 2
    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar, sifted cocoa powder, salt, and baking soda until well combined.
  3. 3
    In a separate medium bowl, combine the cold water, softened margarine, sour cream, and 3 egg whites. Whisk until smooth and emulsified.
  4. 4
    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix gently with a spatula or spoon just until the flour is moistened and no dry streaks remain; do not overmix.
  5. 5
    Pour the chocolate batter into the prepared Bundt pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  6. 6
    In a small bowl, combine the remaining 1 egg white, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1 cup grated coconut, 1 tablespoon flour, and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Mix until the coconut is coated and the mixture holds together when pressed.
  7. 7
    Drop the coconut mixture by teaspoonfuls over the top of the chocolate batter, distributing them evenly to create macaroon clusters.
  8. 8
    Bake for 60 minutes, or until a wooden toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean and the top is golden brown.
  9. 9
    Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
