My husband found this recipe in the Dallas Morning News and insisted that I make it - he did help by "throwing" the coconut on the top and sides of the cake! It was well worth the effort. The article named it "The glamour queen of confections".
I got this recipe from my sister-in-law. It's tasty and easy to make. Great for summer.
Luscious filling nestled in a crumb crust and topped with billowy clouds of whipped cream.
Fresh coconut, sliced and lightly toasted. Highlighted with a sprinking of salt and chilie.
Easy to make, delicious cake.
The textures and flavors of the coconut and butterscotch melt in your mouth!
Ma was an excellent cook and had no "recipes" for most of her delicious home cooked dishes. This one was in one of the old church cookbooks that she gave us one year for Christmas and it's very good.
After baking, the topping on this cheesecake tastes light a light meringue cookie
