Sour cream cake in a new way: with cookies and coconut flakes

Sour cream cake is a dessert that almost every housewife in Ukraine knows about. For the classic version, you need to bake sponge cakes and spread them with sour cream cream. However, you can use a much simpler and more interesting option and make a cake based on cookies. Also, add coconut flakes.

The idea of making Bounty sour cream cake was published on the Instagram page of food blogger Alex (mil_alexx).
