This recipe is a tradition or as they say, mom's recipe. I'm not a good cook, let alone a baker, but I like to learn because I don't want to always give my family the same thing. For them, a mother learns everything, right?

Preheat the oven to 180° C for 20 minutes. Beat the butter with the sugar, add the egg yolks one by one, and while continuing to beat, add the flour with the baking powder sifted beforehand. If it's slightly dry, you can add a splash of milk. Beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form, add the vanilla and orange zest. Gently fold until fully combined. Pour into greased and floured molds and bake for 45 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. For the frosting, beat the cream cheese with the sweetened condensed milk. Decorate the cake with the frosting and coconut.
