preheat oven to cake directions

mix one cup milk and pudding together stir in 1/4 cup powdered sugar together fold in cool whip and a cup of coconut put in fridge to set while cake is baking and cooling

mix cake batter according to directions

mix in 2/3 cups coconut to cake batter (I love coconut so I add a whole cup sometimes more :) )

bake cake in preheated oven as directed on package when done let cool completely

frosting your cake with the cool whip/pudding mixture top with more coconut set in fridge till ready to serve or eat immediately (I usually put it in the fridge to set the frosting more I think it tastes better cold almost frozen)

you can add or lessen the amount of coconut to taste like I said I love coconut you can also use food coloring in the cake batter frosting and coconut flakes that you top it with!!! you can double or even triple the recipe if you want i have and it doesn't change it at all! you can make a round two-three layer cake (make sure you put frosting in between your cakes) or make a sheet cake its all how you want to present it or how many you are serving if a crowd of of course do a 1 layer sheet cake for a small family just make a round cake its all up to you hope you enjoy
