Instructions
- Set oven to 350F. Spray and line a standard 9x5 inch loaf pan with a sling of parchment paper. The paper will allow you to easily lift out the bread for glazing after baking.
- Cream the butter and sugar together well, for about 2 minutes, until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs, one at a time.
- Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl
- Add the dry ingredients to the bowl, alternately with the coconut milk and extracts. Fold in the shredded coconut.
- Turn the batter into your prepared pan. Smooth out the top and bake for about 60-65 minutes until risen, golden, and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out without wet batter clinging to it. (Moist crumbs are ok) Note: loosely tent with foil toward the end of cooking if the cake seems to be browning too quickly.
- Let the cake cool for 10 minutes before turning out onto a rack. Let cool completely before glazing.
- Make the glaze by mixing the confectioner's sugar and extract with enough coconut milk to make a thick spreadable glaze. Stir in a pinch of salt and the extract for flavor. Spread the cooled cake thickly with the glaze, and top with more shredded coconut.
- Store at room temperature or in the refrigerator.
