Coconut, fresh & grated 400 gm
Semolina 200 gm
Sugar 200 gm
All purpose flour 1/8 cup
Butter/ghee ¾ cup
Eggs 3
Baking powder 1 tsp

2. Combine semolina, sugar, flour and baking powder and add slowly to the above mixture with continuous mixing.
3. Beat the butter/ghee and add it to the above mixture. Continue mixing.
4. Leave the batter for 6 –7 hours or overnight.
5. Add vanilla essence (or desired flavor) and mix.
6. Transfer the batter in a greased baking tray (I've used 8x8 glass tray) and top with dry fruits. 
7. Preheat oven to 325˚ F (165˚ C) and place the tray at the center.
8. Bake for 45 – 50 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean
Note: * Add more sugar if you need the cake to be more sweet.
The baking tray has to be half full so that the cake is cooked properly, so use a baking tray accordingly.
Coat the dry fruits with some flour before adding to the batter.
