4 eggs

2 cups sugar

1 cup oil

mix well

add 1 teaspoon coconut flavoring

3 cups flour

1/2 teaspoon baking soda mixed in flour

1 cup butter milk ( or just milk with little vinegar added)

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1 cup coconut

Add all ingredients to mixing bowl. Mix till all combined. Grease and flour 2 bread pans. Pour batter into pans.

Bake 350 for 50-60 minutes (Becky said you can top with foil last 30 minutes to keep from getting too brown, but I haven’t found that to be a problem)

Glaze (heat but do not boil, just until all dissolves)

1 1/2 cup sugar

3/4 cup water

3 Tablespoons margarine

2 teaspoons coconut flavoring

Can top with toasted coconut

I think it is overall easier to put glaze on when in bread pans then remove when 100% cool.  but will need to loosen from pan sides, etc.
