Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a cake pan.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
-
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the coconut milk and vanilla extract.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Fold in the shredded coconut and chocolate chunks.
-
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
While the cake is baking, prepare the coconut drizzle by whisking together the powdered sugar and coconut milk until smooth.
-
Once the cake is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Drizzle the coconut drizzle over the cooled cake. Serve and enjoy!
