Hot Coconut Milk Cake turned out to be soft, crunchy, nutty and scrumptious cake 🙂 I am quite overwhelmed and happy to share this Hot Coconut Milk Cake recipe with all of you! I made this Hot Coconut Milk Cake to distribute as offering on the occasion of rosary. To be honest all the people who ate this cake were telling my mom its awesome and lovely. So this time I ain’t boasting about my Hot Coconut Milk Cake but genuine compliments. I wasn’t present there nor I had a chance to taste the cake. I made this cake with lots of love and faith hence the Hot Coconut Milk Cake turned out delicious.
I believe whatever you do cooking, painting, travelling…. do it with full faith, passion, vigour and love you will zapped with it’s outcome ;)………………….. This is my belief that one day I will be very famous and rich lols… most of us desire to be right!
One of my acquaintance brought for us lot of coconuts. So I thought of making lot of desserts rather different kind of cakes from coconut milk. I made Hot Coconut Milk Cake, Chocolate Coconut Cake, Coconut Marble Cake…. Coming days will come up with more unique recipes and my creations.
The worst part is I couldn’t click more snaps and better photos. I will surely try making this cake again with better pics.

Hi Maria,
I am new to baking but love all your cake recipes and want to try this one. just wanted to know do i first take the 3 cup flour and then sift it or should it be sifted 3 cup flour. I don’t want a mess later so just wanted to clarify:))
maria says
Thanks Bhakti for sharing your views 🙂 measure 3 cups flour first then sift them. Hope this helps and all the best. Looking forward for more communication from you.

Hey All,
I tried this cake last to last weekend and came out very well…. I used fresh coconut also along with the dessicated coconut and used some fresh coconut to sprinkle on the top… The result was heavenly…
I served this cake by p0uring thick coconut milk mixed with sugar and sprinkled a bit of vanilla sugar on top of it….. Of course, topped it with a cherry as well…… I always like my cakes moist….
maria says
That’s great Manoj I am happy your cake turned out well and most important you loved them!……Great frosting too 😉
