3 Coles Australian Free Range Eggs
-
1/2 cup (40g) desiccated coconut
-
1/2 cup (75g) plain flour
-
1/4 cup (40g) self-raising flour
-
1/3 cup (95g) vanilla yoghurt

Method
-
Step 1
Combine berries and sugar in a large saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 mins or until berries release their juices and mixture thickens slightly. Set aside to cool.
-
Step 2
Use an electric mixer to beat butter and extra sugar in a bowl until pale and creamy. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Add the coconut and combined flour and stir to combine. Stir in the yoghurt.
-
Step 3
Spoon berry mixture evenly among eight 1-cup (250ml) jars. Top with one-third of the cake mixture. Tint the remaining cake mixture pink with food colouring. Spoon half the mixture evenly among the jars. Smooth surface. Tint remaining cake mixture a more intense pink with more food colouring. Divide evenly among jars and smooth surface (jars should only be about one-third to half full). Place lids loosely over jars.
-
Step 4
Place half the jars in a slow cooker. Pour boiling water into the slow cooker to come 4cm up the side of the jars. Cover and cook for 1 1/2 hours on high or until a skewer inserted into the centres comes out clean. Set aside to cool. Repeat with the remaining jars.
-
Step 5
To make the coconut frosting, use an electric mixer to beat the butter in a bowl until very pale. Add icing sugar, in batches, beating well after each addition. Beat in coconut milk. Place in a piping bag fitted with a 1cm fluted nozzle. Pipe frosting onto the cakes. Top with berries.
