Got this fab recipe from a friend. Nice tasting cake without the icing. Be warned the icing is very lemony - a must for lemon lovers.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups self raising flour
1 cup caster sugar
2 eggs
1 cup milk
1/2 cup desiccated coconut
1 tablespoon grated fresh lemon rind
125 g unsalted butter (softened)
2 cups icing sugar
1 cup coconut (i prefer shredded or use dessicated)
2/3 cup lemon juice
1 teaspoon grated fresh lemon rind
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, mix together cake ingredients until well combined.
2. Transfer mixture into a well greased cake tin (20cm diameter).
3. I like to use a spring form cake tin.
4. Bake in oven 170 C for 40 mins or until tested done.
5. Turn out onto a cake rack and ice when cool.
6. For the Icing: Mix icing ingredients together till combined.
