Coconut pound cake


This cake is moist with lots of coconut flavor!

Ingredients

Butter - 2 sticks
Sugar - 2 1/2 cups
Eggs - 6
All purpose Flour (maida) - 21/2 cups
Salt - 1/2 tsp
Baking powder - 2 tsp
Vanilla extract - 1 tsp
Coconut extract - 1 tsp
Coconut milk (unsweetened) - 1 cup

Method

Preheat oven to 350 F. Grease a bundt pan with butter or cooking spray.

Combine the flour, salt and baking powder.  Cream the butter and sugar using a hand mixer until light and fluffy.  Beat in the eggs one at a time and add the extracts.  Stir in the coconut milk and beat until combined.  Slowly beat in the dry ingredients until the mixture is smooth.

Pour the batter into the greased pan and bake for about an hour or until a cake tester comes out clean. Let the cake cool for about 15 minutes before turning it out onto a plate.

Enjoy!
