Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round 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.
-
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.
-
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and lemon juice to make the glaze. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cake.
-
Decorate the cake with Easter-themed decorations, if desired.

Serve and enjoy!
