Indulge in this coconut bundt cake! The toasted coconut gives it a nice texture and the added milk makes this cake extra moist. I would pair this dessert with a cup of coffee in the morning or a bright dry white, such as Sauvignon Blanc that has nice citrus notes, to cut through the richness. Happy Baking!
