Recipe for the Week: Coconut Cream Pie Cake
Ingredients: 1 box yellow cake mix, 1 can coconut milk or cream, 1 can sweetened condensed milk, 8 ounces cool whip, 1 small package sweetened flaked coconut.
Directions: Make the yellow cake according to package directions and bake in a 9- by 13-inch baking pan or dish.
While baking the cake, mix one can of coconut cream or milk with a can of sweetened condensed milk. You can use any brand. I personally pick it up at the Dollar Store as it is cheaper.
When the cake is done and while it’s still hot, take a skewer or a chopstick and poke holes evenly all the way thru the cake. Be sure to poke holes along the sides of the cake if possible. (Leave the cake in the pan or dish by the way)
Pour the coconut milk/condensed milk over the cake evenly till it’s all used. It will pool along the cake but that’s ok. Let the cake cool in the pan or dish then put in the refrigerator.
