Directions

1. Step

Preheat the oven to 170°C (338°F). In a mixing bowl, whisk together the egg, sugar, vanilla sugar, and a pinch of salt until well combined. Add the yogurt, milk, oil, semolina, baking powder, and grated coconut, then mix well until smooth. Pour the batter into a 24 cm round pan and bake for 20 minutes or until lightly golden.

2. Step

In a saucepan, heat water, sugar, orange blossom water, and lemon zest over medium heat until the sugar dissolves. Once the cake is baked, pour the warm syrup over the hot cake and let it soak in.

3. Step

In a saucepan, combine milk, sugar, vanilla sugar, orange blossom water, and cornstarch. Cook over medium heat, stirring continuously, until the mixture thickens. Once thickened, stir in the butter and mix until smooth. Pour the cream over the cake and spread evenly.
