Lazy Daisy Cake

[littlemissmartypants]

Also called Danish dream cake (drømmekage), this vintage recipe has a tender cake topped with a “lazy” frosting of butter, brown sugar and coconut. Then the whole cake, still in its pan, is run under the broiler until the brown sugar melts, turning fudgy, and the coconut toasts and singes in spots. It makes for a lovely treat that keeps well, too. The topping, brittle and crunchy on the day it’s baked, gets softer and creamier after sitting at room temperature overnight, where it will last for three days.

I’ll bring Coffee and creamer I’m just plain cream if you want flavored I’ll score some . Please don’t be alarmed when seeing my thermos it’s old yet clean inside and has some dent’s being dropped over decades.
And yet it still does the job I think it holds 85 ounces of coffee.

2. My mom made a cake called Lazy Daisy Cake when I was growing up...

The recipe came from the Quaker Oats company and the frosting even had oats in it, if I remember correctly. The topping had coconut, oats, pecans, brown sugar and butter and we had to cook it on the stovetop and stir, and stir, and stir while it boiled. Then you broiled the frosted cake to make the topping crunchy. It was one of our favorite cakes. I still have the recipe somewhere.
