2. Bake the sponge cake in the oven preheated to 180°C for 25-40 minutes. Do the toothpick test. The baking time depends on each individual oven.
3. Let the sponge cake cool and cut it lengthwise in half.
4. Pour the milk into a saucepan. Add the butter and semolina. Put the saucepan on the fire and bring the mixture to a boil. Stir continuously. Boil until thickened.
5. Remove the pan from the heat. Add the sugar and coconut flakes. Stir.
6. Arrange the first top in a removable form (with a diameter of 20-21 cm). Cover the top with the prepared filling and level it. Press it a little.
7. Cover the filling with the second top and refrigerate the cake overnight. Decorate to taste.
Note: Decorate the cake with boiled condensed milk or frosting. If you use a mold with a diameter of 26 cm, increase the amount of ingredients by 1.5 times.
