moist sheet cake

To prepare the cake, you will need a large and a small bowl, a mixer, a small saucepan, and something to spread the glaze. In the large bowl, beat the eggs and sugar until frothy. Mix the baking powder, flour, and cocoa powder and fold into the glaze. Meanwhile, put the water and butter in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Allow the hot buttered water to cool slightly, otherwise the egg will curdle in the batter. Then add it to the batter and mix everything together. Spread the batter on a greased baking tray, shake it briefly to ensure it rises evenly, and bake in a preheated oven at 200°C (convection oven) for 20-25 minutes. Allow the batter to cool completely before mixing the glaze using the specified ingredients. If the glaze becomes too hard, place it over a smaller pan of boiling water to soften the butter again. Spread the glaze evenly (using a brush if necessary) over the cake and sprinkle with desiccated coconut. The moist, chocolatey sheet cake is ready and my family won’t leave it on the tray for long!
