top me twice cake
(1 RATING)
My husband and I have been married for 42 years and I have been making this for all sorts of occasions over the years. He loves it. It was pinched from a 1980 Pillsbury Bakeoff cookbook. It works great as a coffee cake for a brunch. Hope you enjoy it as much as we have. Sometimes it needs alittle extra bake time, but watch it closely toward the end of cooking so the coconut does not burn on top. Sometimes I lower the heat at the end and cover cake with foil and cook until center of cake is firm to the touch.
