    Beat in 2 tsp coconut extract & 1 cup coconut. Mix thoroughly.
  • 5
    Pour into greased & floured tube pan. Bake at 350, for 1 1/2 hours. Cake is done when a toothpick inserted in the cake comes out clean.

  • 8
    This recipe is NOT reccommended for a Bundt Pan ... it is a tall cake and too much batter for one of those pans.
