LEMON COCONUT CAKE.....

 
 
 
HI again so soon... now this cake can also be a vanilla coconut cake...just substitute lemon and lemon frosting for vanilla...easy peasy!

INGREDIENTS:

1 1/2 cups Self Raising Flour
plus 1/2 teaspoon baking powder (for extra fluffiness)
1/2 cup desiccated coconut
3/4 cup sugar  ( I used organic raw)
2 eggs  (room temperature)
1 cup milk
125 grams melted butter
1 Tablespoon of grated lemon rind.

Fresh lemon juice for frosting.

Lemon frosting:

Icing mixture
real butter and fresh lemon juice to the consistency you'd like.
every body has their own fav mix...so do what makes you happy!





METHOD:

Add all dry ingredients into bowl
beat the eggs...add to the milk...then add melted butter
immediately pour into dry ingredients....MIX with a WOODEN SPOON>

don't use an electric mixer...just mix till lumps are gone. Don't over do it.  ok folks...that's it oh 30-40 minutes in the oven about 180 degrees Celsius.... or how ever your oven behaves!!
I sprinkled coconut over the top of mine  :)  Till next time ...BELIEVE  its all magic!
