This cake is incredibly addictive, probably one of the most tempting cakes I've ever baked. I mean, picture this: a soft and crumbly semolina cake, drenched in freshly squeezed orange juice, and topped with a generous sprinkle of shredded coconut. Are you kidding me? This is the kind of cake that makes you want to start your day with a slice and a steaming cup of tea. What's truly fantastic about it is that the sweetness is perfectly subtle, so you won't need to wrestle with guilt when you reach for another piece (although good luck stopping at just one!). And the best part? It's a breeze to make. Everything comes together in one bowl, and in no time, you're pouring the batter into the cake pan. Plus, it's ready to devour in just one hour from start to finish. So, what are you waiting for? Time to indulge in this delightful treat!

Directions

Step 1
