Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Coat 2 (9-inch) round cake pans with cooking spray; set aside.

In a large bowl with an electric mixer on high speed, beat eggs. Add sour cream, oil, cream of coconut, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract, beating until well blended. Add cake mix; beat at low speed until blended. Beat at high speed 1 minute, then pour batter evenly into prepared pans.

Bake 28 to 30 minutes, or until a wooden toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pans on wire racks 10 minutes; remove from pans and let cool completely on wire racks.

Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, beat cream cheese and butter at medium speed until creamy; add remaining vanilla, beating well. Gradually add confectioners' sugar, beating until smooth. Stir 2 cups flaked coconut into frosting.

Spread frosting between layers and on top and sides of cooled cake. Sprinkle with remaining coconut. Store in an airtight container in refrigerator.
