Description
A delightful dessert that combines the richness of cream cheese with the tropical flavor of coconut, resulting in a soft and creamy pudding.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups lift flour
- 1/2 cup grated coconut
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 100 g cream cheese (or butter)
- 2 eggs
- Vanilla essence to taste
- Dulce de leche (necessary quantity)
Instructions
- Melt the butter or cream cheese in a bowl. Add the sugar, eggs, and vanilla essence. Beat strongly until well integrated.
- Incorporate the lift flour and grated coconut, mixing until you get a smooth mass.
- Let the mixture stand in the fridge for 15 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 180 °C (350 °F). Grease a baking mold and place nonstick paper at the bottom if desired.
- Pour half of the mixture into the mold. Add a layer of dulce de leche in the center, then cover with the remaining mixture, leaving space for it to rise.
- Bake for about 20 minutes until golden brown. Insert a stick into the cake to check if it’s done; it should come out clean.
- Once out of the oven, cover with sweeter milk and sprinkle grated coconut on top. Let it cool and enjoy!
Notes
Best served chilled. Store leftovers in an airtight container for about 3 to 4 days.
