Steps:

• Add the sugar, beating at high speed until mixture is thickened and turns a lemon color.
• Mix in the flour, baking powder and salt.
• In a saucepan over medium heat, heat the milk and butter together to boiling. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla.
• Add the heated milk to the ingredients in the bowl and beat to combine.
• Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 30 minutes, until the top springs back when you touch it. Allow the cake to cool for 10 minutes.
• Turn on the broiler to "low" in the oven.
• While the cake is cooling, make the topping.
• Melt the butter in a microwave safe bowl.
• Add the brown sugar, milk and coconut, stirring to combine.
