-
Pour into a greased 8×8-inch pan (or 9-inch round).

Sprinkle extra coconut on top.
-
Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 25-30 mins until a toothpick comes out clean.

Pro Tips for the Best Cake
🔹 Toast the coconut topping (350°F for 5 mins) for extra crunch.
🔹 Room-temperature eggs blend smoother.
🔹 Don’t overbake – The cake stays moist thanks to coconut milk!
🔹 Make it fancy with whipped cream and mango slices.
