Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Delicious Lazy Daisy Cake.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C). While it warms up, grab a mixing bowl and whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set this mixture aside for now. Next, take an 8-inch cake pan and grease it well, then dust it with a bit of flour to ensure your cake comes out easily later on.
Step 2
In a small saucepan, combine the skim milk, 1 tablespoon of butter, and vanilla extract. Heat this over medium-high until it reaches a gentle boil, then remove it from the heat and let it cool slightly.
Step 3
In a separate mixing bowl, beat the eggs with a hand mixer until they’re smooth and creamy. Gradually add in the white sugar while continuing to beat on high speed. Once combined, gently fold in the flour mixture until you see just a few lumps remaining. Now, pour in that warm milk mixture and stir until everything is beautifully smooth and well combined.
Step 4
Pour the batter into your prepared cake pan and pop it into the oven. Bake for about 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Once baked, let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 5
While the cake is cooling, let’s prepare the delicious topping! In a bowl, mix together the softened butter, brown sugar, flaked coconut, and heavy cream until everything is evenly combined. Once your cake has cooled, spread this luscious mixture generously over the top. Now, slice, serve, and enjoy this delightful treat!
How to Serve
Serve slices of this cake warm or at room temperature, perhaps with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra indulgent treat!
How to Store
Store any leftover cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to a week. You can also freeze slices for up to 3 months.
