Recipe Instructions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.
Step 2
Whisk coconut and sugar together in a bowl. Sift in flour and whisk to combine. Form a well in the center.
Step 3
Whisk eggs together in a small bowl and pour into the well. Add enough milk to reach a slightly thickened but runny texture. Pour batter into the prepared pan.
Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes.
Step 5
Remove from the oven and let cool for 20 minutes. Pour simple syrup over cake before serving.
