Transfer mixture to a large bowl, stir in the remaining sifted flour with coconut, yogurt and milk in two batches. Spread the mixture into pan. Bake in 350°F oven about 45 minutes. Stand the cake about 5 minutes before turning onto wire rack.
Lime Syrup:
Combine all ingredients in small pan. Stir over heat, without boiling, until the sugar is dissolved. Simmer uncovered, without stirring, for 3 minutes, strain.
Pour the hot lime syrup evenly over hot cake until the syrup is absorbed.
Notes
Oranges or lemons can be substituted. We have found the same flavored light yogurts enhance the flavor.
