Cassava Cake (Filipino dessert)
By Conne Cannon
Description:
This is a classic Filipino dessert enjoyed year round. Most of the ingredients can be found in an oriental store. Most difficult ingredient to find is usually the coconut cream. If you can't find it, substitute another can of coconut milk. Also, it is easier to just buy the cassava already grated. It should be in the freezer section.
