Adjust the oven rack to middle position and heat to 350°F. Grease and flour an 8½ by 4½-inch loaf pan. Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.
STEP 2
Process sugar, cream of coconut, eggs, vanilla, and coconut extract in a food processor for 10 seconds. With the machine running, pour the melted butter through the feed tube for 30 seconds. Pour mixture into a bowl.
STEP 3
Sift one-third of the flour mixture over the egg mixture and whisk in. Repeat twice more with remaining flour mixture, whisking gently until most lumps are removed (do not overmix).
STEP 4
Pour batter into the prepared pan and smooth top. Tap the pan gently on the counter to settle the batter. Bake until a skewer comes out with a few crumbs attached, about 50 to 60 minutes, rotating halfway through.
STEP 5
Let cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then flip onto a wire rack. Let cool completely, about 2 hours before serving.
