Give this lovely flavorful but heavier cake a try, its meant to be a good snack for when you come in from working outside and need something to fill you up a bit and tied you over till the real meal comes.
- 1/4 cup of oil
- 1/2 cup of Sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup of milk
- 2 cups of flour
- 1 tbsp of Baking Powder
- a pinch of salt
- 1 cup of dried cranberries (or any other dried fruit)
- 1/2 cup of Coconut
Mix your oil or Butter/Margine together with your sugar, then add your eggs and beat together, then add milk, then all the dried, mix together, its a fairly thick batter, and into a 8 by 8 glass pan.
Then take brown sugar and lightly sprinkle it on top of the cake batter, till you can’t see it anymore, then take Coconut and repeat, covering the brown sugar, then Bake in a 350 oven for about 35-40 min or until a knife comes out clean.
Serve with Tea or goes wonderful with a big old glass of ice cold milk.




I was confused then, I was still thinking about my response to the meat questions! Did sudden inspiration strike? LOL. I dont have any coconut , bum. Looks like it will be carrot cake here again. It’s still raining, I’m sure spring has to come sometime soon!
Carrot Cake is always a very good thing, I guess that was a switch and half from the meat to the cake, but I had made the cake for the weekend, and it just turned out so nice that it seemed worth a note.
it certainly looks very yum 🙂
You know how I love cocoanut, could be a keeper,mom
