- 1 can (14 ounce) coconut cream
- 1 can (14 ounce) coconut milk
- 3 large eggs (beaten)
- 1 cup evaporated milk (or whole milk)
- 1/2 cup butter, melted (1 stick)
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese (optional - I don't use it)

How to Make
-
Step 1: Mix together all the cake ingredients.
-
Step 2: Portion the mix into 2 separate baking pans (or one rectangular pan) and pop them in the oven. Bake for 35 - 40 mins or until the top is firm and set.
-
Step 3: In a saucepan, mix together the topping ingredients and simmer for a minute. Set aside.
-
Step 4: When the cake portion is done, pour the topping onto the cake, spread it evenly, and bake for another 15 minutes or until golden brown.
-
Note: The center of the cake gets cooked last so to test for doneness - the top should be golden brown, then insert a toothpick in the center and if comes out clean, it's done.
