This cake is so rich and moist and has crunchy toasted coconut on top. It’s hard to believe that it is so easy to make!
Preheat oven to 350ºF. Grease and flour a 13″ x 9″ baking dish. In a large mixing bowl, blend together cake mix, vanilla pudding, canola oil, water, sour cream, and eggs. Blend on medium speed for 3 minutes. Add the coconut and mix well. Pour into the greased pan and bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until lightly brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
For the glaze, cream together the powdered sugar, butter, and cream cheese. Add lemon juice and milk and blend until smooth. Poke small holes in the cake with a knife or toothpick. Pour the glaze over the warm cake. After the glaze has soaked into the cake for a few minutes, place the cake in the fridge and allow to cool completely.
For the frosting, cream together the cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Add shredded (untoasted) coconut and mix well. Gently spread over the cooled cake. Don’t worry if some of the glaze mixes with the frosting while you are spreading it on—it will be delicious! Sprinkle toasted coconut on top.
Store the cake in the fridge to keep it fresh and yummy.
