1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
2 large eggs

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a cake pan by greasing it lightly.
In a bowl, beat together the sugar and softened butter until creamy. Just imagine that butter is a luxurious beach towel!
Add in the eggs, one at a time, and mix well. Don’t worry about cracking them; that’s part of the fun!
Stir in vanilla extract—a little whiff of sunshine for your mix.
In another bowl, combine the flour and baking powder. Gradually add this dry mix into the wet mixture, alternating with the coconut milk. Mix until just combined. Word of advice: don’t overmix unless you’re looking for a workout!
Fold in the shredded coconut like you’re tucking in a blanket for a good night’s snooze.
Pour the batter into your prepared cake pan and bake for about 30-35 minutes, or until they’re golden-brown and a toothpick comes out clean. You might even hear it singing a tropical tune as it bakes!
Let it cool completely before you head into the glorious dusting of powdered sugar—who doesn’t love a sprinkle of fancy?

And there you have it! A simple, delightful coconut cake that’s perfect for any occasion—like celebrating the good life or just because it’s Tuesday. Slice it up and enjoy your journey to Coconut Paradise!
