This broiled coconut pecan topping is perfect. |
1 C. rolled oats
1 1/2 C. boiling water
1 C. brown sugar
1 C. sugar
1 stick (1/2 C. ) soft butter
3 eggs
1 t. vanilla
1 1/3 C. flour
1 t. salt
1 t. cinnamon
1 t. soda
1/2 C. raisins (optional)
1/2 C. chopped pecans (optional)
Broiled Coconut Pecan Topping Ingredients:
2 sticks butter
1/4 C. cream or evaporated milk
2 C. brown sugar
2 C. sweetened flaked coconut
2 C. coarse chop pecans
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. and place the rack so the top of the cake is in the center of the oven. Butter and flour a 9" x 13" baking pan and set aside.
Pour the boiling water over the oats and leave to sit for 20 minutes. Cream together the sugars and butter in a large mixing bowl. Next stir in the eggs and vanilla until well combined.
Using another bowl whisk together the dry ingredients and add 1/2 to the batter. Add 1/2 of the oat mixture and stir just until combined. Add the rest of the flour then the res of the oats stirring well. If desired add the nuts and raisins just until combined. Bake 30-40 minutes.
Meanwhile combine the topping ingredients in a heavy bottomed saucepan. Stir as you bring to a boil. Boil 1 minute and remove from the heat.
When you remove the cake from the oven spread evenly with the warm topping. Place the cake under the broiler for about 2 minutes until bubbling! Do not walk away. Watch closely as not to burn. Serve warm or at room temperature. This cake travels well and is always a hit.
