- 3 large eggs, at room temperature separated

- Beat the 2 tablespoons butter with 1/2 cup sugar in a large bowl until creamy, using a handheld electric mixer.
- Beat in the flour, then the egg yolks, limeade concentrate, coconut milk, and salt.
- In another medium bowl whip the egg whites until they form soft peaks.
- While whipping, slowly pour in the remaining 1/4 cup granulated sugar and continue beating until the whites hold stiff, glossy peaks.
- Fold a quarter of the whites into the coconut-lime mixture, then fold in the remaining whites.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and add enough boiling water to the roasting pan to come halfway up the side of the dish.
- Bake about 35 minutes or until the top of the pudding cake is slightly puffed and golden.
- Remove from the water bath and cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes; serve warm.
- Garnish each serving with toasted coconut, if desired.
