It's Tuesday, which means it's tip day. This is such an EASY yet YUMMY recipe that always gets great reviews. I usually keep the ingredients on hand for "emergencies". ;) In fact my 13 year old nephew made it a few weeks ago for a scout cake-off and he won! I usually tell people it's like a coconut Tres Leches Cake. Try it out, make a twist, tell me what you think.
Cool Coconut Cake
1 box yellow cake mix (and it's called-for ingredients)
1 can coconut milk
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1 tub whipped topping
1 cup of coconut flakes (optional)
-bake the cake according to box directions
-combine coconut milk and sweetened condensed milk
-when cake is done, poke several (let's say 30 or so) holes in the hot cake with butter knife
-pour combined milks as evenly as possible over hot cake
-let cool
-cover with whipped topping and coconut flakes
-serve chilled
*this is also VERY yummy served warm, just add the whipped topping to individual portions, and either way it pairs amazingly with vanilla ice cream.
