Coconut Pound Cake

When we went to Hawaii we had coconut pound cake and it was amazing so I found a recipe to try. It is pretty good.
I found this recipe from allrecipes.com and made it my own.

2 cups sugar
1 cup butter
5 eggs
2 cups flour
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup coconut
1 1/2 tsp. coconut extract

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9 by 13 inch pan.
In a large bowl, cream together sugar and the butter. Fold in the eggs one at a time, fully incorporating each one before adding another.
In a seperate bowl, mix te flour, baking powder, milk, 1/3 cup flaked coconut, and coconu extract. Beat in the creamed mixture. (This step is important or the cake will fall)
Bake 35 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.
