Coconut Cake

Every now and then I get into baking/cooking mode. It had been a while since I baked a cake, so decided to make a simple coconut and cherry cake.

Here is the recipe

6oz butter
3/4 cup sugar (I have reduced this from 1 cup, because I don't like extra sweet cakes)

1 1/2 cup flour

1 tsp baking powder

3 eggs (beaten)

1/2 cup dessicated cocunut

1/4 cup cherries chopped

1/2 tsp vanilla essense (opt)

3-4 tbsp milk

Cream the butter and sugar till pale and fluffy.

Graudually beat in the eggs + vanilla essense.

Fold in the sifted flour+bk pwder

Fold in the cocunut with teh cherries.

Add milk to get to dropping consistency

Bake at 350 for 1/2 hour our till a tooth pick comes out clean.

Enjoy!
