Ingredients

  • 1 box (18.25 Oz. Box) White Cake Mix (without The Pudding)
  • 1/4 cups Vegetable Oil
  • 3 whole Eggs
  • 8 ounces, weight Sour Cream
  • 8-1/2 ounces, weight Can Of Pina Colada Or Cream Of Coconut
  • 8 ounces, weight Cream Cheese
  • 1 box Confectioners Sugar (3 1/2 Cups)
  • 2 Tablespoons Milk
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla
  • 1 can (about 14 Oz. Size) Flaky Coconut

Method

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • To make the cake, combine the white cake mix, oil, eggs, sour cream, and pina colada or cream of coconut. Mix according to the directions on the cake mix box.
  • Bake in a greased 9x13 pan for 35 minutes. Let cake cool completely.
  • To make the icing, mix the cream cheese, confectioner's sugar, milk, and vanilla in a mixing bowl until smooth. Spread on the cooled cake. Sprinkle with the coconut.
  • Keep refrigerated if desired, depending on the temperature where it is stored. I don't like ice cold cake!
  • Holiday idea: I divide the coconut evenly into two bowls. In one bowl, I add a drop of red food coloring and in the other, green food coloring. Mix until all coconut has some color on it. Then I usually put green on first and the red on top. It adds cheer to the table!
