Steps:
- 1. Set aside the last three ingredients - it's the sugar mass on the top.
- 2. Dissolve the yeast in the warm milk.
- 3. Add all the dry ingredients into the liquid. Mix it lightly with a hand mixer or your kitchen machine, then add the soft butter.
- 4. Mix it well on medium speed. Form a dough ball. Cover and let it rise for 20 min.
- 5. Add the last three ingredients to a small pot and let it all melt on low heat - don't boil! When it's all an even mass turn off the heat.
- 6. Take a 10" x 15" pan. Grease it or use baking sheet. Spread out the dough in the pan just using your hands. Poke holes into the dough with your fingers. Then pour over the sugar mass from the pot. Let it rise an extra 20 min. Before putting it in the oven poke the dough once more ... Here I used the handle of a big wooden spoon.

Steps:
- Beat together the eggs and sugar for 10 minutes.
- Add the flour and baking powder and mix in well.
- Bring to boiling the 200 ml milk and the 1/3 cup butter, then add to the above mixture and blend in well.
- Preheat oven to 375 F and pour batter into a rectangular baking dish.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean.
- While the cake is baking melt the 3/4 cup butter in a saucepan and add the brown sugar, coconut, and 2 Tbs milk.
- When the cake is done spread the topping over, return to the oven and bake for about 5-7 minutes until topping is bubbly.
- Cool before slicing in the pan and enjoying!
Tips:
- Choose the Right Pan: Use a pan that is at least 9 inches in diameter and has a heavy bottom to ensure even heat distribution and prevent burning.
- Do Not Overmix the Batter: Overmixing the batter can result in a tough and dense cake. Mix just until the ingredients are combined and no lumps remain.
- Preheat the Oven: Always preheat the oven to the desired temperature before baking the cake. This helps ensure that the cake bakes evenly.
- Do Not Open the Oven Door: Avoid opening the oven door during baking, as this can cause the cake to sink or collapse.
- Check for Doneness: Insert a toothpick or a skewer into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean, the cake is done.
