Coconut Cake with Limited Edition No. 2 Mango and Passion Fruit Preserve

Cake al cocco con composta Limited Edition Nr. 2  al Mango e Frutto della Passione

INGREDIENTS

175 g soft butter

175ml coconut milk

150 g of sugar

25 g of raw cane sugar

3 eggs

225 g of flour

1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

6 tablespoons desiccated coconut

220 g of limited edition mango and passion fruit preserve

 

Beat the butter with the two types of sugar until soft, then add the lightly beaten eggs, one at a time.

Also add to the mixture 5 tablespoons of desiccated coconut and the flour sifted with the yeast and a pinch of salt, a little at a time, alternating it with the coconut milk (keep 40 ml aside).

Once the mixture is smooth, pour it into a loaf pan lined with baking paper.

Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for about an hour (check if it is cooked by inserting a toothpick into the centre of the cake: it should come out dry).

Remove the cake from the oven and prick it in several places with a toothpick: pour the remaining coconut milk over the cake, a little at a time, so that it penetrates the holes and slightly moistens the surface.

Sprinkle with the remaining desiccated coconut and let cool before serving the cake in slices with the fruit preserve.
