Method

Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease and flour a 9×13 inch baking pan.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the coconut milk. Mix until well combined.
Fold in the lemon zest, lemon juice, and shredded coconut.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
While the cake is baking, prepare the glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar and lemon juice until smooth.
Once the cake is done, let it cool for a few minutes before drizzling the glaze over the top.
Allow the cake to cool completely before serving. Enjoy!
