Drommekage fra Brovst aka Danish Cream Cake is what we were challenged this time for Baking Eggless by Gayathri. The recipe was suggested by Meena of Chettinad Fiesta. It is a Vanilla Pound Cake topped with Delicious Coconut topping. I tried this cake twice. First time the cake was way too dense, i baked it in a smaller container, so thought it was the reason. Though it was dense, the taste was awesome. Second time, i got a better cake. The taste was really good, with the sweetness and aroma of Coconut mixed with butter and sugar, mmm Divine!!!
My kiddo would never try a cake that is not chocolate, but he ate a full slice of it as i was trying to take a picture and asked some more the next day.
But i should warn you, it has loadssssss of Calories, butter and coconut, If you dont mind them or planning to make somebody else eat 😉 go ahead , bake and enjoy.
Ingredients
For the Cake
1 Cup + 2 tablespoon All Purpose Flour.
1 and ½ teaspoon baking powder
2 tablespoon Butter
½ Cup Milk
½ Cup Pureed Silken Tofu (substitute for 2 eggs)
¾ Cup Brown Sugar
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Topping
¼ Cup butter, softened to room temperature
2 tablespoon milk
¾ Cup dessicated coconut
¾ Cup Brown Sugar
Method
For the Topping
In a mixing bowl, combine all topping ingredients. Set aside until ready to spread over cake.
For the Cake
- Preheat oven to 200 degrees C/400 degrees F. Grease an 5 inch (20-22cm) square or round baking pan. If desired, line baking pan with parchment paper, then grease paper.
- Whisk together Flour and Baking Powder. Cream together Butter and Sugar using a hand blender. Add Silken tofu and Whisk again.
- Alternate Flour and milk little by little and mix with a spatula.
- Pour the batter in the prepared baking dish and bake for 30 minutes or until a tooth pick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
- Once the cake is done, take it out of the oven, spread the topping on the top and Bake again @ 200C for 10 minutes or until the top is browned.
- Take it out, let it cool. Slice it up and serve.
Notes
- Baking time varies from oven to Oven, so bake accordingly.
- If you don't find Silken Tofu you can use ½ Cup Yogurt.

I stick to condensed milk and yogurt for most times as subs for eggs. I think if you blend the tofu with milk earlier it will give a good texture to the cake. for one of our free spirit experiments, DK made pound cake with tofu.
Your cake must have tasted wonderful though, dense or light.
