The unusual feature of this recipe is that the coconut mixture forms a soft topping when baked and eliminates the need for icing.

  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup warm milk
  • 1 tablespoon butter or margarine, melted
  • 2 egg yolks, well beaten
  • 1 cup sifted all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Mix the sugar, warm milk and butter or margarine together. Add the egg yolks, then the dry ingredients and beat until light. Put in a well-greased 9-inch square pan, spread with Topping (see below), and bake 30 to 35 minutes in a 350 degrees F oven.

Topping

  • 2 egg whites
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • pinch salt
  • 1 cup flaked coconut

Beat the egg whites until stiff, adding the sugar gradually while beating. Add the salt and coconut and spread on the cake before baking.
