Cake wreck

This is the Coconut "Macaroon" Cake that I made. It looked terrible. There was a drama involved during the making of this cake -- a hunt for odd ingredients (unsweetened desiccated coconut? really?), a lack of basic baking implements (zester), and a crucial interruption which caused me to short by one tablespoon the amount of baking powder necessary. Though it won't win any beauty contests, it actually tasted pretty good. Lemony and coconuty all at once. In fact, all the recipes we tried were bursting with flavor. I might just try this again.

  1. The cake was delish for two days running in the AM with my coffee!
