Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    This was delicious! Used a 9” square pan and baked for 20 min.

    Not much of a coconut flavor- maybe try subbing half coconut oil for butter or find another recipe. I like the texture with dried coconut in there. Needs to be room temp!

    This made a tasty coconut cake. It's more on the dense side rather than fluffy but the coconut flavor was nice, and it was the right level of sweetness for a frosting. Paired with the coconut frosting, it was a crowdpleaser.
