1. Preheat oven to 350 F.

2. In food processor, combine flour, powdered sugar, and butter and
process to fine crumbs. (Alternative: Stir the flour and powdered sugar
together. Cut in the butter to make fine crumbs.) Pat the crumbs into an
8x8x2-inch glass baking dish. Bake the crust for 20 minutes.

3. To prepare the filling: Toward the end of the baking time for the
crust, beat the eggs until smooth and lemon-colored. Beat in the sugar,
stir in the lemon zest and lemon juice. Blend in the baking powder and
flour. Stir in the coconut.

4. Pour the filling over the baked crust. Return to the oven and bake
for 20-25 minutes, or until lightly browned on top. Cool in the baking
dish on a wire rack. When cool, cut into 2-inch squares (4 across, by
4 down). Refrigerate to store.
