Baker's Tips

  • This cake will keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

    This recipe was originally published in Anneka Manning's SBS Food online column, Bakeproof: Easy Chocolate Cakes.

    Step 1

    Preheat oven to 180ºC (160ºC fan-forced). Grease a Wiltshire Square Cake Pan (20cm, top measurement) with melted butter and line the base with baking paper.

    Step 2

    Combine the butter, sugar and milk in a medium saucepan. Stir over medium heat until butter just melts, sugar dissolves and mixture is combined. Remove from heat and use a fork to whisk in the eggs and vanilla.

    Step 3

    Sift together the flour, cocoa powder and baking powder into a large bowl. Stir in the coconut. Add the butter mixture and use a balloon whisk to stir until just combined.

    Step 4

    Spoon the mixture into the prepared pan and use the back of a metal spoon to smooth the surface. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean. Stand in the tin for 5 minutes before turning onto a wire rack to cool completely (this will take about 1½ hours).

    Step 5

    To make the chocolate buttercream, use an electric mixer to beat the butter, icing sugar and cocoa powder in a medium bowl until pale and creamy. Spread over the cooled cake and sprinkle with extra coconut. Cut into portions to serve.
