I have got to bake this for my co-worker's birthday on the 25th! She said she love coconut cake and I love baking pound cakes. Perfect!

sexybeast 3 months, 4 weeks ago said:
I don't know if I'm missing it entirely, but where in the directions does it instruct when/how to add the coconut to the batter? And if the instructions aren't clear ... how did this recipe rate 5 stars, not once, but six times??? Another prime example of how seriously flawed the so-called "rating" system is on this site.

A step was mistakedly left out in the instructions on when and how to add the coconut to the batter. That information has now been added. I apologize for any confusion that this might have caused.

8. Stir in coconut

Obviously she forgot to add that last tiny step, let's not nitpick. It happens, and one would assume all one needs to do is just throw in the coconut and stir...mystery solved!!!!!!!!!!!
