For an extra layer of flavor, lightly toast the shredded coconut before adding it to the batter. Ensure the Parmesan cheese is finely grated for the best texture and even distribution throughout the cake. If you prefer a sweeter cake, you can increase the sugar by ¼ cup. To check for doneness, insert a toothpick into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean, the cake is ready. Allow the cake to cool completely in the pan before inverting it onto a serving plate. This will prevent it from breaking.
