Where to find ingredients
You can find fresh coconuts and standard baking ingredients in local markets, supermarkets, or small food stalls. If fresh coconut is unavailable, desiccated coconut can be used as a substitute, though fresh is preferred for the best texture.
Preparation method
- Place the eggs, butter, milk, condensed milk, and grated coconut into a blender.
- Blend all the ingredients until the mixture reaches a smooth and uniform consistency.
- Pour the mixture into a greased baking dish or ovenproof pan.
- Place the dish in an oven preheated to 180°C.
- Bake for approximately 30 minutes, or until the top is golden and the cocada is set.
