Magic Cake turns into three layers when baked. The bottom layer is like ‘Fudge’, the middle layer is ‘Custard’, and the top layer is ‘Sponge’. I altered my ‘Magic Cake’ recipe to make this ‘Magic Cake with Coconut Sponge Top’, and you only need 1 mixing bowl as you don’t need to separate Eggs into …
