  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  ---------------------------------
  3              large  eggs
  1                cup  sugar
  2        tablespoons  vegetable oil
  1           teaspoon  lemon juice
  1           teaspoon  coconut extract
  2 3/4           cups  all-purpose flour -- or unbleached
  1 1/2      teaspoons  baking powder
     1/2      teaspoon  baking soda
     1/8      teaspoon  salt
     1/2           cup  flaked coconut
  1                cup  golden raisins
  1              ounce  unsweetened baking chocolate -- melted, or 1 envelope Nestle Choco Bake, or 2 tbs. unsweetened coco powder
     1/2           cup  white chocolate chips

Beat together the eggs and sugar until fluffy. Mix in the oil, lemon Juice, and coconut extract and blend well. Add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt and blend until smooth. Fold in the coconut and raisins. Remove half of the dough from the howl onto an aluminum foil-lined baking sheet (if sticky, refrigerate for about 10 minutes). Shape into a log and flatten to about 3 1/2 to 4 inches wide, 3/8 inches high, and about 15 Inches long.

Add the chocolate flavoring to the remaining dough in the mixing bowl and mix until the dough turns chocolate-colored. Fold in the white chocolate chips. Remove the dough from the bowl and make a log next to and the same size as the white log. Using the foil to lift, flip the white log on top of the chocolate log. Press them together lightly and smooth the top and edges. Bake in the oven at 350° for 25 to 30 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and slice the combined log diagonally into 1/2- to 3/4-inch slices. Stand the slices up on a baking sheet and return to oven to toast for about 10 minutes on each side. Cool.
