  5. Place cake back into oven and broil until the top layer is caramelized – around 5-10 minutes, depending on your oven.
Recipe Notes

If you cannot find coconut cream, you can use 2 cans of coconut milk instead and the recipe will turn out fine.

If you are not able to find grated cassava, you can make it yourself with fresh cassava root. Simply peel and grate, or use a food processor.
