INSTRUCTIONS
- Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9 by 5-inch loaf pan with non-stick spray. set aside
- In a medium bowl sift the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- In a stand mixer or handheld, mixture beat together the butter for 2 minutes on medium speed. Add in the granulated sugar and beat on medium speed for 5 minutes, you want it to be light and creamy. Add in the vanilla extract. Then beat in one egg at a time, beating well after each addition. (scrap down the bowl as needed).
- Add in the sifted flour mixture and coconut milk in three additions on low speed. Add ⅓ flour, ½ cup milk, ⅓ flour, ½ cup milk and finish with the remaining flour. Do not overmix. Fold in the 1½ cups shredded coconut. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 1 hour and 10 to 25 minutes. Or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean ( a few crumbs are okay). Allow the cake to cool for 10 minutes and then flip over to finish cooling on a wire cooling rack.
- Glaze: In a medium bowl whisk together the 2 tablespoons of coconut milk and ¾ cups of powdered sugar, mix until smooth. I like mine thick, but if you want it thinner add more coconut milk. Drizzle over cooled bread, top with coconut and serve.
