Number Of Ingredients 13

2 c ap flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
4 Tbsp butter
1 c milk
4 eggs - room temperature
1 tsp vanilla
2 c sugar
TOPPING - SOMETIMES I DOUBLE AND ADD NUTS TOO
9 Tbsp butter - melted
3/4 c packed, light brown sugar
6 Tbsp evaporated milk
1 1/2 c shredded coconut

Steps:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degree F. Grease and flour a 13 x 9 inch pan.
2. Whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl
3. Heat the butter and milk in a medium saucepan over medium heat until the butter melts. Stir in the vanilla.
4. With an electric mixer on medium - high speed, beat the eggs and sugar until pale and thick, about 6 minutes.
5. Using a rubber spatula, fold in the flour mixture and milk mixture alternately until just incorporated.
6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool slightly in the pan, about 10 minutes. Heat the broiler.
7. Topping: Combine the butter, brown sugar, evaporated milk, and coconut in a medium bowl.
8. Spread the topping evenly over cake. Broil until topping bubbles and just begins to brown, 3-4 minutes. Serve warm.
9. This cake can be stored at room temperature for up to 4 days. Reheat servings in the microwave.
