Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325'F.
- Oil and flour a 9 x 5 inch loaf pan.
- Take a cup of the silken tofu and blend it until smooth.
- In a medium bowl, using a hand mixer, blend the smooth tofu, coconut milk, sugar, oil, vanilla and lemon extract (and the coconut if using) until completely smooth.
- In a separate bowl, sift together all the dry ingredients. Fold the wet into the dry using a spoon (I used a spatula) and mix until just combined. Then using a hand mixer on low mix for 15-20 seconds, just to remove the lumps -- do not over mix!
- Pour the batter into your prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
- Bake for 60-70 minutes until a skewer comes out clean in the center.
- Let cool in the pan about 10 minutes before removing. Then cool completely on a wire rack before slicing -- it will fall apart if you don't.
- Bon Appetit!

Steps:

Tips:
- Use fresh lemons: Fresh lemons provide the best flavor and aroma to the cake. If you only have bottled lemon juice on hand, use 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon to equal the 3 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice called for in the recipe.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can result in a tough, dense cake. Mix the batter only until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This is the best way to ensure that the cake is done baking. If the toothpick comes out with moist crumbs attached, the cake needs to bake for a few minutes longer.
- Let the cake cool completely before glazing: This will help the glaze to set properly and prevent it from running off the cake.
- Store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days: The cake can also be stored in the refrigerator for up to 1 week, or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
