Carefully fold the dry ingredients into the batter, stirring as little as possible.

Add the milk and melted butter mixture to the batter, again trying not to over stir.

Pour the batter into the cake form.

Bake the cake for about 20 minutes, checking for a golden brown top.

Prepare the coconut topping while the cake is baking.

Once the top of the cake is golden brown, add the coconut topping.

Return the cake to the oven for another 6 to 8 minutes until the topping starts bubbling.
