It's a Piña Colada cake I made well over a year ago. Rooth gave me the recipe. It was soooo good! I made it myself, then did what I do best with receipes--I lost it. That was the first (and last) time I ever made whipped cream. I thought that stuff came from factories.
You can tell from the distribution of the coconut that I planned to share the cake. I like coconut and toasted coconut, so I devoted sections of the cake to both. No one else in my family likes either, so I left an entire half of the cake bare. Half the cake for me, half for the rest of the family.
That's sharing, right??? :D
PS - I kept burning the "toasted" coconut. What you see in the picture was my 3rd batch. I gave up after that.
Wow that is one decadent looking cake! :)
ReplyDeleteIt really is--sweetened condensed milk gets poured over the cake while it's still warm.
DeleteMmmmmm you need to make one again - this is one of my favourite desserts
ReplyDeleteIt is a great summer dessert. Or winter! :) But since it's refrigerated, I think of it as a summer favorite.
DeleteI'm sure Rooth can send you the recipe again, can't she? (ps: I want it too!!)
ReplyDeleteI'm not going to ask--you know how prickly she can be. lol!
DeleteI'm determined to find it myself--I kow I have it. I will share it once it surfaces.
yeah i lose recipees too.... even when i email it to myself. that DOES look delicious. yum. make me some one day! haha
ReplyDeleteYes! This one was in an e-mail!!! Thank goodness my electronic filing at work is much more organized. :)
DeleteMaybe she'll give you the recipe again. And half a cake for you, the other half for the family sounds pretty reasonable since you made it :).
ReplyDeleteYou've given me incentive to cook/bake more often (the sharing thing). :)
DeleteA pina colada cake!?! Sounds amazing.YUM!

It is really good. It has some pineapple and pineapple juice in the cake itself and the cake gets covered with sweetened condensed milk before the whipped cream and pineapple are put on top. It's really good.
