Semolina Coconut Cake/Rava Coconut Cake

Semolina and coconut cake/Rava coconut cake ,a delicious coconut cake which is always a hit at my place.The texture and taste of this cake is amazing

Had made this for rosary at my place .It was well received by all.Semolina and coconut gives a nice texture to this cake.the cake is pretty similar to my coconut cake posted before but the texture is a bit different..
ingredients
200 gms maida/all purpose flour
100 gm bombay rava /suji/semolina
100 gm desiccated coconut
5 eggs
150 gm butter
1/2 cup oil
250 gm sugar powdered
2  1/2 tsp baking powder
2 tsp vanilla
1/2 cup milk

  • sift maida rava baking powder and keep aside.
  • in  a big bowl cream/beat butter oil and sugar  till fluffy

  • add one egg and beat do the same with rest of the eggs



  • mix in the sifted flour and coconut and mix well 







  • Add milk and mix.




  • Divide the batter into 3 parts mix few drops of orange and green colour and mix with spatula



  • Pour the batter in the prepared cake pan and with a help of skewer or tooth pick gently swirl it to give marble effect.
  • Garnish with almond flakes (optional)





  • Preheat the oven at 180 degree Celsius for 10 minutes
  • Bake for 60 to 70 minutes or until skewer inserted comes out clean. 


Notes
I have added colours to the batter made three parts added few drops of colour mixed .
Here i have used 10 inch heart shaped cake tin you can bake this in 10 inch round or 13×9inch rectangular pan.
Baking time may differ it may take about 55 minutes to 1 hr 10 minutes depending upon your oven temperature.
The texture of this cake is soft but not super soft because of addition of desiccated coconut but the taste and texture is simply amazing.

Its semolina coconut cake so will taste better with coconut. IF you skip you will have to adjust the other ingredients accordingly
