This week's TWD recipe, Coconut Tea Cake, was chosen by Carmen who blogs over at Carmen Cooks. You can find the recipe on her blog. Or you can go to one of the links I have from when I made this recipe previously.
I have made this recipe twice before; I made mini lime bundt cakes and a regular sized Lemon-Ginger Bundt, both times because I had leftover coconut milk that I needed to use.
Basically, Dorie's book is the first thing I turn to if I need to bake something or if I have leftover ingredients that could be used for baking.
Both times I made this cake it was delicious. Both times I made a simple glaze.
It was a hit both times.
Check out the TWD Blogroll to see what other variations people made of this cake!
Today is my younger brother's 18th birthday and I am so thrilled that he is here with me to celebrate! I am going to bake him an awesome cake and we are going to have a fun day~ Happy Birthday Andrew!!!!

I made mini lemon bundts, too. The ginger sounds like a good twist.
Yum this looks incredible! I so wish I would have put a glaze on my cake.
Both of the version you made sound good to me. Next time, I'm trying lime, too! Enjoy spending time with your brother!
Delicious! I bet the version with ginger was delicious. Have a great time with your brother!
think the lime is a fantastic option especially since summer is around the corner. Shall try that next time!
Happy Birthday to your brother. Hope you had a good day :)
The cakes look wonderful! I went the mini bundt route too.
I love your little bundt cakes. This is one pan I don't have yet and I'm chomping at the bit to buy it!!! I think your addition of ginger is a great idea! Just started following you ;)
Both your cake and your mini cakes look fabulous! Happy Birthday to your Brother! Oh, Dorie's book is also my "go to" book whenever I need something baked. :)
Your mini bundts are so cute! Love the sound of the lemon-ginger cake!
The mini bundts look fantastic and so spring-y - can't wait to try this one! I agree; BFMHTY is my go-to baking book.
Your cakes look amazing. Thanks for baking with me this week!
I thought this recipe was amazing. I used orange and ginger. The ginger was a subtle yummy flavor. I will make it again.
I'm always happy when I see your blog on my google reader.
I love the way the glaze looks running down the sides!
you rock for using ginger. your cake looks awesome! I'm making mine today for Easter. Can't wait to taste it!
A LATE comment! Ginger - what a great variation! I love it and had some in my fridge - I need to use more of it. The cakes look so wonderful - truly. Little cakes just have that adorable look to them. Great cake, i agree - one of my favorites!
Happy belated Birthday to your brother! And Happy Easter!
