what you need
- 1 white cake mix & ingredients called for on the box
- 1 cup coconut flakes
- 9 oz. coconut milk
- 9 oz. cream of coconut
- 8 oz. Cool Whip
make it
Prepare the white cake per directions on the box. Stir in one cup of coconut flakes. Pour into 9 by 13 cake pan & bake. Combine coconut milk (shake well) with cream of coconut in bowl & set aside.
As soon as cake is out of oven, use wooden spoon to poke "holes" into cake (like a pudding poke cake). Let cake cool to room temperature (approx 30 minutes). Generously pour all of coconut milk & cream mixture over cake.
Refrigerate overnight. Top with Cool Whip right before serving.
Notes
The cake does not need to refrigerate overnight, but it gives time for the coconut mixture to seep in & add so much flavor and moisture! Delicious! Perfect for any one crazy for coconut!
