Daddy's Birthday Coconut Cake

My dad loves Coconut Cake and as much as I bake I could never find a coconut cake recipe (that I was willing to make) that he bragged on.  For his birthday which happened to be the day before Easter I tried this recipe and was told it was the best one I have ever made. From now on this is my go to Coconut Cake recipe!
