Corn Bundt Cake with Salted Coconut Sauce

Corn Bundt Cake with Salted Coconut Sauce

This dessert is known as Bolo de Milho de Liquidficador; kitchen blender corn bundt cake. It is called that since all of the ingredients are puréed in a blender at once. It is that simple. The cake is baked in a bundt cake pan. It is served for breakfast or as a snack with butter.
The salted coconut sauce is not authentic. I just happened to have made mango sticky rice the other night and thought that the salted coconut sauce in the rice with some butter, sugar, and coconut flakes would be a great addition to the cake…which it is.

Drizzle the glaze over the entire cake. It will soak it up like a sponge.
