Banana Cake, Coconut Juice Cake and Crispy Oat Cookies

Attended my second lesson with Richard today and he taught us Banana Cake, Coconut Juice Cake and Crispy Oat Cookies. This banana cake is a sponge cake type, not the butter cake type, so it is lighter and less oily. However, I am not a big fan of banana.

Initially I am wondering what is coconut juice cake before I got the recipe. I was thinking if we will be taught how to bake a cake using coconut juice from the fruit itself. Turn out that it is actually coconut milk that we are using...

This is also a sponge cake type of cake, but reminds me of pandan cake rather than coconut juice cake. Although this cake is tasty, but this is a very sinful cake! Not only it uses coconut milk, it also uses 15 egg yolks! I may try making this cake again, but with half the recipe and lesser sugar as I find it too sweet for me.

As for the Crispy Oat Cookies, I personally don't like it. Maybe the cookies were placed in the container before they were completely cool, it was soft when I ate it just now. Moreover it taste bitter to me, I don't know why. But I will ask Richard about this when I next attend his class.
