Recipe of the Day: Jam and coconut cake [Video]

Cold winter weekends are made better when you’ve got friends coming over for a cozy chat and coffee with some sweet snacks. This jam and coconut cake is a simple tea time snack that you can make to serve with your favourite cuppa. It has all of the fluffy cake textures with sweetness from the jam giving it that extra layer of goodness.

The cake is a simple vanilla cake which you can combine with coconut if you want more of that subtle flavour. Use any jam to spread over top and if you make your own jam, you’ll have an even tastier experience. Serve these tasty squares with a hot cup of tea or coffee as you spend a cozy morning with your best friends.
