1.1.1.1 cake

1,1,1,1 Cake
* 1 cup desiccated coconut
* 1 cup milk (soy, almond, rice milk if lactose intolerant)
* 1 cup caster sugar (normal sugar is fine, see notes below) half a cup is my preference
* 1 cup self raising/rising flour (Gluten Free SR Flour if gluten intolerant)
SPECIAL NOTE:
Original recipe is one cup of sugar, I only ever use HALF a cup and it's perfect, in fact you can use half a cup of stevia not sugar when I have it on hand.
Preheat oven 180C/360F.
Place all ingredients in a bowl and mix. Line a loaf tin with baking paper and pour mixture in. Bake for 40 minutes.
Club Tropicana Variation of our 1,1,1,1 Cake:
* Add the zest of one Lime to the cake mix
* Ice with a white chocolate ganache, add some shredded coconut and more lime zest.
BANANA VERSION:
*Simply add a very, very ripe mashed banana (they are best) and mix thoroughly.
CHOCOLATE VERSION:
* Simply replace the coconut in the recipe above with HALF a cup of cocoa instead and you have the EASIEST chocolate cake.
CHOC-COCONUT VERSION:
Simply add half a cup of cocoa to the original recipe (leave the coconut in).
PASSIONFRUIT VERSION AS MADE BY MYSELF WHEN I FIND PASSIONFRUIT ON SALE:
SIMPLY ADD ONE WHOLE PASSIONFRUIT TO THE CAKE MIX & TO THE CREAM CHEESE ICING.
