Amie's Triple Coconut Cake

By jolofson

This cake is so good! I made the cake and took to a Christmas Book Club meeting. It was a huge hit!

Ingredients

• 1 Betty Crocker white cake mix
• 1-1/4 cup coconut milk
• 1 15-ounce can cream of coconut
• 8-ounce container of whipped topping
• 1 cup flaked coconut

Preparation

Step 1

1.Prepare cake mix according to directions on the box, substituting coconut milk for water in the mix. Bake in a 9 x 13 pan. Amie and I both thought the cake was done at least 5 minutes before the box directions predicted. Over bake and the crust will be too dry to absorb the cream of coconut.
2.While the cake is still warm, poke holes all over the cake with a skewer.
3.Warm cream of coconut for 1-1/2 minutes on HIGH in the microwave and pour over the cake. Chill for several hours or overnight.
4.Frost with 1 container of thawed, whipped topping (i.e. Cool Whip). Sprinkle flaked coconut on top. Keep refrigerated.
