Oh how I remember this cake....Nana made it all the time. I was in the 4th grade when I remember it first, I'm sure she made it before. We lived in Kennedy, Texas. She called it a burnt sugar cake.
Grandaddy loved coconut and I learned to. Sooooo
good. She also made a Fresh Coconut pie too. Wish I could find that recipe. She would grate the
fresh coconut. I guess Grandaddy opened it for her. She always let me help her cook. These memories are priceless. Makes tears come into my eyes. They are so precious. I hope you have
memories that are precious to you.
