Instructions: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9 x 13 cake pan. Cover the bottom of the pan with the nuts and coconut. Prepare cake mix according to directions on the package. Pour the cake batter on top of the nuts and coconut. Melt margarine in a bowl, add the cream cheese and powder sugar. Stir to blend. Spoon over unbaked batter. Bake for 40 to 42 minutes.

Note: you cannot test for doneness with a cake tester, as the cake will appear stick even when it is done. The icing sinks into the batter as it bakes, forming a white ribbon inside.

Patti Notes: The is easy and delicious. Ive taken it to dinners and everyone wants the recipe.
