A great story and a fool proof recipe that makes me drool. I'll do this someday, probably adding something chocolate to the sponge cake, or just add a chocolate sauce to it. I love coconut and chocolate!
Hi @owasco, I need to stop baking cakes and tarts, it's way too tempting! I'm sure coca would be a good addition in the sponge batter, and possibly in the meringue topping. I agree, chocolate and coconut are a great combo. If I were to do this, I would first mix the cocoa into the coconut before folding it into the meringue.
Share it with us if you get to make it. Years ago when we had the #cookwithus contest on the old blockchain, one of the organizers started a tag #myturn, which we'd use if we were re-creating one of the dishes from other entrees.
I hope you're keeping well @owasco 💖
