4 Eggs, separated
⅓ cup Lemon juice
1 teaspoon Grated lemon rind
¼ teaspoon Salt
¾ cup Freshly grated coconut (up to 1)
1 tablespoon Potato starch

In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter. Gradually add the sugar and cream together until light and fluffy. Add the egg yolks and beat well. Add the lemon juice, lemon rind and salt and blend well. Fold into the coconut and potato starch. Stir in the milk.

In a clean medium sized bowl beat the egg whites until stiff but not dry.
