Going Coconuts

~ amykins100

Feeling a little Fall like today and it makes me want to bake! Thinking about coconuts and it makes me want to bake Coconut Pound Cake…why not. It’s sweet, moist, tender and oh so delicious. It is also wonderful to tuck into a lunchbox for a small sweet treat. It is kind of perfect, matter of fact. I may just have to try another piece…just to make sure.

The Usual Cast Of Characters

3/4 cup softened butter
3/4 cup coconut milk
1 1/2 cups sugar
3 eggs (lightly beaten)
4 – 6 Tablespoons shredded coconut, depending on how you like it!
1 3/4 cups All purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt

The Steps to Glory

  • Preheat over to 350 degrees.
  • Greese and flour 1 loaf pan, set aside.
  • In a mixing bowl, mix softened butter and sugar together until fluffy.
  • In a seperate small bowl, mix together flour, salt, baking powder, and shredded coconut.
  • Add eggs, one at a time into butter/sugar mixture. Mix well.

  3. Hi there! The coconut pound cake sounds scrumptious! Saving the recipe for a cooler day. 😀 Just wanted to say how darling your girl is! And a first grader! So is my oldest granddaughter 😀 I see your girl has lost a tooth. My Ruth has one loose but refuses to have it pulled. Oh no! The permanent tooth is now growing in behind it. :O Have a marvelous day. And another slice of cake. Bonnie Banks
