Spread the love

Ingredients for 1 servings:

  • 250 g margarine
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 3 tbsp water
  • 180 g sugar
  • 5 eggs
  • 150 g flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 3 egg whites
  • 2 egg whites
  • 100 g powdered sugar
  • 100 g desiccated coconut

Instructions

Working time approx. 15 minutes; Total time approx. 15 minutes

For the chocolate dough, melt the margarine, cocoa, water and sugar in a saucepan, stirring constantly, and bring to a boil briefly. Set the mixture aside and allow to cool slightly. In the meantime, separate the eggs (5 egg yolks together, 3 egg whites together, 2 egg whites together). Stir the 5 egg yolks, one at a time, into the cooled chocolate mixture. Mix the flour and baking powder and stir them into the mixture. Beat 3 egg whites until stiff peaks and carefully fold them in. Spread the mixture onto a baking tray lined with baking paper. For the coconut dough, beat 2 egg whites with 100g icing sugar until stiff peaks and fold in the coconut flakes. Spoon the coconut mixture onto the chocolate dough in heaps (this will create a cow pattern). Bake at approx. 180°C (top/bottom heat) until the coconut is very lightly browned.
