Coconut Cake with a Twist

  I think of all the easy desserts I make, I enjoy the Coconut Cake best. It's so simple and yet seems somehow elegant to me. One square of the cake just fits the bill for a heavenly dessert.

 I have considered a number of times making a change. Why not add different kinds of puddings to the topping? I've always used vanilla. I decided I wanted to try pistachio first. It produced a pastel green topping that is striking ... and delicious!


 For as simple as this is, it'd make a memorable dessert for any occasion.


 The cake always turns out perfectly in a 9x9" metal pan. After frosting I cut it into nine equal slices.


The finished cake is almost too pretty to slice. But the 3x3" squares seem the perfect size for a single serving.

 What's next? Lemon for sure. But what about butterscotch or banana cream?
