Coconut cake from the tray

To bake the coconut cake from the tray, we preheat the oven to 180°C, which is a good temperature for this cake and ensures an even baking process.

To make the dough, mix the flour, sugar, butter, eggs, baking powder and a pinch of salt in a large bowl. I recommend beating the dough for at least 5 minutes to make it nice and fluffy.

Now spread the dough onto a prepared baking tray. I like to use baking paper here to make sure that the cake doesn't stick to the tray.

For the topping, bring the cream, sugar and vanilla sugar to the boil in a pan. As soon as the cream boils, stir in the grated coconut and leave to cool slightly. Then spread the mixture evenly over the pastry.

Now place our cake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes. Check regularly, every oven is different and you don't want the cake to burn.

As soon as the coconut sheet cake is golden brown, take it out of the oven and leave it to cool on the tray. Enjoy your meal!
