Coconut Pound Cake

Summer is here and seeing all the fresh coconuts that are sold on the streets puts me in the mood for a coconut-featured pastry. I opened up my trusty America's Test Kitchen cookbook and found their Coconut Pound Cake recipe.

I've doubled the recipe because it calls for 3/4 cup cream of coconut (note that it's not coconut milk) and rather than leaving the rest in the fridge to dubious means, why not finish it all in one bake? The below recipe has been altered to utilize the full can of cream of coconut and it makes a bundt and loaf pan, which means more to share!
