The easiest cake ever

I bought the 4 ingredients book by Kim and Rachael a while back.

On Thursday night  I did not want to go to the shops to get food for kids lunches. It was late, I was short on what to put in their lunch boxes, as they go to school at 7.30 in the morning. It’s important I put enough food in their lunch boxes, as they eat something before school even starts.

So when I am short on food, I bake or cook something. Pancakes, muffins or whatever I have ingredients for. I wanted something really quick and easy. I did not have any eggs. So I searched through their recipes and found the 1,1,1,1 Cake

1 Cup SR Flour

1 Cup Sugar

1 Cup dessicated coconut

1 Cup Milk

You literally put all the ingredients in a bowl and mix it with a wooden spoon. Put the mixture in a loaf tin and bake in oven for 40 min at moderate 180C (I have a fan forced oven and 32 minutes was enough).

The kids loved it.

But I felt it was too sweet for my liking. Surprisingly it is quite dense and moist.

I’ll be making this again.

    I used to make this when I was a kid, except we called it "Poor Student's Cake"!
