Lazy Daisy Bundt Cake#BundtBakers

This month for Bundt Bakers the theme if Filled Bundt.  Made this Lazy Daisy Cake which is an old-fashioned cake it's  light, moist, with a broiled brown sugar coconut topping.

It's my birthday cake, am so happy that it turned out delicious and melt in the mouth. 

Took the rectangular pan for the party with my friends. Oh! they were so delighted to see this yummy cake and as usual it vanished in minutes. 
This bundt cake was for my family. 
Happy Birthday!!  Celebrating with ... Lazy Daisy Cake.

Ingredients

3 Cups Flour
3 Teaspoons Baking powder
3 Cups Granulated sugar
6 Eggs
150 Grams Butter
2 Teaspoons Vanilla
1.1/4 Cup Warm Milk

For the Topping

1 Cup Flaked Coconut or Desiccated Coconut
1 Cup Brown sugar
2/3 Cup Fresh Cream
150 Grams Butter

Method

Pre-heat oven to 180 D.
Oil and dust with flour a silicone bundt mould, keep aside.

Sieve flour and baking powder, keep aside.

Beat eggs, granulated sugar and 100 grams butter, and vanilla essence in a large bowl until fluffy, add flour mixture, beat until blended, stir in milk, pour batter into prepared pan, bake for 50 minutes to an hour or more or when tooth pick inserted comes out clean. 


In my oven it took an hour and 15 minutes, since this batter is thin. After 45 minutes, covered the pan with a aluminium foil till done so that the top does not get too brown or burnt.
The rectangular pan took about 45 minutes to bake.
Now spread the topping and bake it again for 10 minutes.
For the Topping
Meanwhile mix remaining 100 grams butter, coconut, brown sugar and cream in medium sauce pan, over medium heat, cook until sugar dissolves and butter melts, stirring constantly, spread coconut mixture over warm cake, bake for another 10 mins until top is light golden.
Cool it completely then un mould and slice it.

Enjoy...
My Notes:
I made one in the bundt pan and the other in a rectangular pan with the above quantity.

Have used desiccated coconut, If,  you can get hold of flaked coconut it will give the topping an awesome texture and look.
