Samoa Bundt Cake ( caramel Coconut)

Hello everybody.

Visited a dear friend this morning who had a big gathering and I did promise her to bring her something sweet so my search came across this elegant sort of easy cake that I decided to make right away.I love coconuts and caramel so guess combined will be awesome.

 

Don’t know from where this cake got its name,tried to look for the origin but didn’t find a clue.This cake is like a marble cake but with caramel and chocolate instead of vanilla.

Ingredients and method:

  • For the caramel batter:
  • 3/4 cup butter.
  • 1 cup dark brown sugar.
  • 2 eggs.
  • 1 cup flour.
  • 1 tsp baking powder.
  • 1/8 tsp baking soda.
  • 1/4 tsp salt.
  • 1/2 cup milk.
  • Beat all ingredients consequently and keep aside,

 

  • For the chocolate batter:
  • 1 cup sugar.
  • 1/4 cup oil.
  • 1 egg.
  • 1 tsp vanilla.
  • 1/2 cup milk.
  • 3/4 cup cocoa.
  • 1 tsp baking powder.
  • 1 cup flour.
  • 1/2 cup boiling water.

Beat all ingredients consequently till smooth.

In a bundt greased cake pan pour a small amount of chocolate batter then a small amount of the caramel and continue till all done.

Bake in a moderate heated oven for 40-45 minutes or till done.

cool then decorate with the following:

  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk.
  • 1 tablespoon butter.
  • 1 tsp vanilla.
  • 1 pack cream.
  • 1/2 cup toasted coconuts.

In a pressure cooker cook the closed can of milk for 30 minutes ,cool and open carefully then mix with other ingredients.

decorate cake with this frosting then sprinkle roasted coconuts and chocolate on top.

Note: you can cook the milk in a regular pan but it’ll take more time of course.
