          In a large bowl, sift together:<\/p>\n

            In another bowl:<\/p>\n

              \n
            • Beat eggs lightly<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

              Now add:<\/p>\n

              • Oil<\/li>\n
              • Milk<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                Mix until smooth.<\/p>\n

                \ud83d\udd39 Step 4: Combine the Batter<\/h1>\n

                Gradually add wet ingredients into dry ingredients.<\/p>\n

                Mix gently until:
                \n\u2714\ufe0f Smooth
                \u2714\ufe0f Lump-free batter forms<\/p>\n

                \u26a0\ufe0f Do NOT overmix.<\/p>\n

                \ud83d\udd39 Step 5: Add Chocolate Chips (Optional)<\/h1>\n

                \n

                \n

                  Mix until thick, creamy, and spreadable.<\/p>\n

                  \ud83d\udc49 If too thick, add a little more milk.<\/p>\n

                  \ud83c\udf82 Step 9: Assemble the Cake<\/h1>\n

                  Place one cake layer on a serving plate.<\/p>\n

                  Spread the coconut filling evenly.<\/p>\n

                  Now place the second cake layer on top.<\/p>\n

                  \ud83c\udf6b Step 10: Decorate the Cake<\/h1>\n

                  Drizzle melted chocolate over the top.<\/p>\n

                  Decorate with:<\/p>\n

                    \n

                    \n\u23f0 30\u201360 minutes<\/strong><\/p>\n
