Coconut milk chocolate cake

I was expecting something different after this cake. I thought it would be more coconut ( but desiccated coconut I sprinkled over vanilla ice cream compensated my disappointment) and more cohesive. Here I got a surprise because, although the cake was quite heavy it was also full of air bubbles – just delicious!
For sure I’ll make it once again and probably soon, because combinations of strong chocolate cake and vanilla ice cream was a real shot in the eye!
P.s. The cake was supposed to have a glaze, but my husband put it in the sink, thinking he’s washing dirty dishes…
