Instructions

  • Let's first make the syrup.
  • Combine sugar, 1 cup water and cream of coconut in a saucepan or deep skillet.
  • Cook on medium heat for about 10-15 minutes until it gets all bubbly and frothy. Leave to cool completely for 15 minutes.
  • In a bowl, combine flour, baking soda and salt. Mix to combine.
  • Combine butter and sugar and mix until creamy, using an electric mixer.
  • Add eggs and beat well.
  • Add syrup and mix until thoroughly combined. Add dry ingredients and mix well.
  • Pour into whatever vessel you use for steaming. I poured it into individual greased ramekins in a pot.
  • Fill pot with water enough to touch bottom of ramekins. Cover and steam for 45 minutes-2 hours, until knife inserted comes out clean.
  • Carefully remove from ramekins and slice.

Cooking time will vary, depending on size of vessel you are steaming it in. Check periodically and add water when necessary as it evaporates.
