200 g butter (melted)
2 eggs
3 dl sugar
3 dl milk
8 dl flour
2.5 teaspoons baking powder
0.5 teaspoons baking soda (sometimes called bicarbonate of soda)
2 tablespoons grated coconut
2 teaspoons ground cardamon1 pinch bourbon vanilla powder
grated zest of one lemon
Melt butter and let cool. Turn oven to 180 degrees C.
Grease a cake tin with butter and 'flour' it with grated coconut.
Whisk eggs and sugar until white and fluffy (high speed) in the main mixing bowl.
Combine all dry ingredients in a separate mixing bowl.
Alternate adding some of the flour mix and some of the milk into the main mixing bowl to keep the batter at a workable texture (medium speed).
Add the butter and mix until just combined (low speed or with spatula by hand).

Pour batter into baking tin. Before going into the oven, sprinkle with grated coconut and pearl sugar (also called nib sugar or hail sugar).
As for the timing, just test with a tooth-pick or an uncooked spaghetti. Stick it in a few places where the cake is at its thickest. If it comes out dry, the cake is done! Count on somewhere between 35 - 50 minutes depending the shape and size of your tin. (Or make muffins - it's faster!)
