Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease a loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat 1 tbsp softened butter and 1/3 cup sugar together until light and fluffy.
- Add 2 tbsp lemon zest and 1 tsp vanilla extract, mixing well to combine.
- Add the 2 eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Stir in 1/2 cup condensed milk until thoroughly incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup all-purpose flour and 1/2 cup self-raising flour until well combined.
- Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing gently until just combined. Avoid over-mixing to ensure a tender cake.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it out evenly.
- Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
- Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the cake is cooling, combine 2 tbsp lemon juice and 1/2 cup powdered sugar in a small bowl, mixing until smooth.
- Add 1/3 cup dried coconut meat and stir to combine.
- Once the cake is completely cool, drizzle the lemon glaze evenly over the top, allowing it to soak into the cake and drip down the sides.

Tips:
- Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature before starting to mix; this helps in achieving a smoother batter.
- Zest the lemons before juicing them to make the process easier.
- Beat the butter and sugar until they are light and fluffy to help create a well-risen cake.
- Sift the flours together to ensure even distribution and to avoid lumps in the batter.
- Slowly fold in the flour mixture to avoid over-mixing, which can result in a denser cake.
- Allow the cake to cool slightly before drizzling with the lemon juice and powdered sugar mixture to let it soak into the cake properly.
