1, 1, 1, 1 CAKE

1, 1, 1, 1 CAKE:From 4 Ingredents


1 cup desiccated coconut
1 cup milk (soy or rice milk if lactose intolerant)
1 cup caster sugar (normal sugar is fine)
1 cup self raising/rising flour (Gluten Free SR Flour if gluten intolerant)

Preheat oven 180C/360F.

Place all ingredients in a bowl and mix. Line a loaf tin with baking paper and pour mixture in. Bake for 40 minutes.

SERVING SUGGESTION:

Serve warm with butter or cold with cream cheese icing … Deliciously simple!


A number of versions over the years have developed with this recipe. The easiest chocolate cake version is simply replace the 1 cup of coconut with half a cup of cocoa. However if you want a chocolate-coconut cake leave the coconut in the recipe and simply add the half a cup of cocoa.....YUMMO!

OPTIONAL:

Cream Cheese Icing:

Ingredients

60g cream cheese, softened
30g butter, softened
1/2 teaspoon vanilla essence
3/4 cup icing sugar mixture

Method:

Place cheese, butter and vanilla in a bowl. Using an electric mixer, beat until pale. Gradually add icing sugar mixture, beating until combined.
