Easy Coconut Cake

I should have taken a picture before we had cut the cake!

 

We were really in the mood for a coconut cake the other night. Since we were in the middle of a blizzard and a trip to the store was out of the question, I googled recipes until i found one i had all the ingredients for!

 

This is a super yummy recipe that is quick and easy :)

 

Easy Coconut Cake

 

For the Cake:

1 box of yellow cake mix

2/3 cup of coconut

 

Prepare cake batter according to package instructions. Add 2/3 cup coconut to the batter before pouring into pan. Bake according to package instructions. Let cake cool completely.

 

For the Frosting:

1 box of vanilla pudding

1/2 cup of confectionery sugar

1 cup of milk

1 tub of cool whip

Coconut to sprinkle on top

 

Combine all Four ingredients with a mixer. Ice the cake as you would a normal cake. Top with  coconut.

 

I used sugar free vanilla pudding and sugar free cool whip because that's all we had. Next time i will defiantly at least use regular cool whip to make the frosting a bit thicker.
