Heat oven to 160ºC, 325ºF, Gas Mark 3. Grease and line a tin 28 x 18 cm (11 x 7 inch). Cream margarine and sugar, beat in egg yolks, milk and essence. Fold in the flour and the salt and spread in the tin. Beat egg whites stiffly, fold in sugar and coconut. Spread mixture over base and sprinkle with cherries and nuts. Bake for about 45 minutes. Cut into slices when cool.

I made this today. Just far far to sweet and a little too much coconut having it in the base and top.
