Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and grease a 9x9 inch baking dish.

2. In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs until light and fluffy. Add the melted butter, milk, lemon zest, and coconut milk. Mix well.

3. Gradually add the flour and icing sugar to the wet ingredients, stirring until the batter is smooth.

4. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and smooth the top with a spatula.

5. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are lightly browned and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

6. While the bars are baking, prepare the cream cheese frosting. In a mixing bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, honey, and sugar until smooth and creamy.

7. Once the bars are baked and cooled, spread the cream cheese frosting over the top evenly.

8. Refrigerate the bars for at least 1 hour before slicing into squares and serving.

Special Tips or Variations:

- You can add shredded coconut to the batter for extra texture and flavor.

- For a tangier frosting, add a splash of lemon juice to the cream cheese mixture.

- These bars can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days in an airtight container.
