Where to find ingredients
Condensed milk and standard baking essentials like flour, sugar, butter, and baking powder are readily available at any local supermarket or general food store. For desiccated coconut, check the baking aisle or the dried goods section. If you are specifically looking for Brazilian-style ingredients, larger grocery stores with an 'International' or 'World Foods' section may carry them, but standard desiccated coconut found in local stores works perfectly for this recipe.
Preparation method
- Add the condensed milk, desiccated coconut, eggs, butter, flour, and sugar to your blender jug
- Blitz until you have a smooth, well-combined batter
- Fold in the baking powder gently with a spoon or spatula, or use the pulse setting on your blender briefly to incorporate it
- Pour the mixture into a greased cake tin that has been dusted with a little flour
- Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for roughly 30 to 40 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean
- Remove from the oven and let it sit for a while until it is just warm
- While still warm, slice the cake into neat squares
- Lightly coat each piece in caster sugar before serving
