Ingredients

  • 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 can (12 oz) evaporated milk
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1 cup coconut milk
  • 3 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup shredded coconut
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Butter and flour for greasing pan

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a baking pan with butter and flour.
  2. In a blender, combine condensed milk, evaporated milk, whole milk, coconut milk, eggs, melted butter, sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
  3. Add flour, shredded coconut, baking powder, and salt, then blend until fully combined.
  4. Pour batter into prepared pan and tap gently to release air bubbles.
  5. Bake for 50–60 minutes until the top is golden and center is mostly set.
  6. Cool completely at room temperature.
  7. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Batter will be thin—this is normal for custard-style cakes.
  • Chilling improves texture and flavor significantly.
  • Do not overbake; slight jiggle in center is expected.
  • Best served cold for creamy consistency.
  • Optional toppings include toasted coconut or caramel drizzle.
