140 g Dansukker Light Muscovado Sugar
180 g plain flour
10 g baking powder
6 g cardamom
150 ml water
Icing
125 g butter, browned
60 g Dansukker Icing Sugar

Instructions
Set the oven to 175°C using top and bottom heat.
Grease a 20x30 cm baking tin and line it with parchment paper.
Beat the eggs and sugar until fluffy. Combine the flour, baking powder and cardamom in a bowl and fold them into the egg mixture. Add the water and stir to a smooth paste.
Pour the paste into the baking tin and bake in the lower part of the oven for about 25-30 minutes. Allow the cake to cool slightly in the tin, then turn it out onto a wire rack.
Prepare the icing. Brown the butter and add the icing sugar and vanilla sugar. Add the egg yolks one at a time and whisk until smooth.
Toast the coconut in a dry frying pan and set aside.
Spread the icing over the cooled cake and sprinkle with the coconut. Cut into pieces and serve.
