I found this recipe recently from a supermarket magazine and it tastes as good as it looks. It's easy to make and you can use any fruit jam you like.

Cooking Instructions

1 hour 25 mins
  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 180C fan/160C gas mark 4. Grease a 900g loaf tin. Beat the butter, sugar and vanilla together until fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time with a little of the flour (this is important as it helps stop the mixture splitting).

  2. 2

    Fold in the coconut, remaining flour and milk. Spoon 3/4 of the cake mix into the tin and top with the jam (not too close to the edges). Spoon the rest of the mix on top.

  3. 3

    Bake for 35 minutes, cover and return to the oven for another 20-25 minutes until just cooked and just golden. (You might need to adjust the times for your oven, I had to cover mine after 20 minutes because the top was cooking too quickly).

  4. 4

    Leave to cool. Mix together the icing ingredients, drizzle the icing over the cake and sprinkle the coconut on top.

How do you do the conversions now? As in grams to cups etc?
