Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease an 8x4" loaf pan.
Beat sugar and butter in a large bowl until light and fluffy.
Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition.
Stir juice and zest of one lemon into butter mixture.
Mix flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl; add to butter mixture alternately with milk, mixing until batter is just incorporated.
Fold in coconut and stir until combined.
Pour the batter into prepared loaf pan.
Bake for 60 to 65 minutes; until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
Drizzle
In a bowl, stir 2 teaspoons lemon juice into confectioners' sugar until mixture is thin enough to drizzle.
Drizzle mixture evenly over the loaf.
Notes
3 Tbsp bottled lemon juice can replace fresh lemon in the batter, and 2 tsp. for the drizzle.
