In stand mixer, cream butter and sugar until fluffy. Add eggs, milk, and vanilla, beat until everything is fully incorporated and smooth.

Preheat the oven to 350 F (180 C), Grease bottom and sides of 9 x 13" pan with shortening or pan spray.
Spread dough over bottom of pant, pressing to form a crust of relatively even thickness.
Spread raspberry preserves evenly over the crust.
Whisk eggs until foamy. Add sugar, whisk until well combined. Add remaining ingredients, stir to combine well.
Drop spoonfuls of the coconut mixture all over the raspberry layer, and gently spread to create a solid layer.
