Where to find ingredients
You can find standard baking supplies like all-purpose flour, caster sugar, and butter at major supermarkets across Singapore like FairPrice, Cold Storage, or Giant. For the condensed milk and desiccated coconut, check the baking or canned goods aisles. If you prefer a different texture, desiccated coconut can be found in the baking section, while frozen grated coconut is sometimes available in the frozen food aisle of local specialty grocers.
Preparation method
- Place the condensed milk, shredded coconut, eggs, butter, flour, and sugar into the blender jar.
- Blend all the ingredients on medium speed until the batter is smooth and well-combined.
- Add the baking powder and fold it in gently with a spatula, or pulse the blender just enough to incorporate it without overworking the batter.
- Pour the mixture into a greased and lightly floured baking tin.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for 30 to 40 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool slightly on a wire rack.
- While still warm, slice the cake into neat squares.
- Dust the individual pieces with extra caster sugar before serving.
