Delicious Yam Cake

Peel and cut the yam, cook with 1 cup of water

Drain

In a separate pan, heat the pecan with the remaining water from cooking the yam, until it forms a thick syrup

Add the grated coconut and mashed yam, stir well to combine

Let it cool and mix with a wooden spoon until you get a compact mass

Pour into an oiled bowl, separating them

Allow it to dry completely

Cocoa Coverage:

Melt everything over low heat in a water bath

When it's smooth and liquid, skewer the cake onto a fine thread (to avoid piercing the cake too much) and pass each one through the chocolate

Place on a tray to cool

This operation must be done with the chocolate always warm

You need to work quickly because the glaze starts to get too thick

After cooling, wrap in special paper for cakes.
