Instructions: Place above ingredients in large mixing bowl. Mix with electric mixer for 1 minute on low speed, then 2 minutes on high speed. Pour into prepared 9 X 13 pan ( I only spray mine). Bake at 350 degrees for 35-45 minutes or until toothpick inserted into center comes out clean. Cool completely and frost.

Frosting:
Blend first 4 ingredients with electric mixer until smooth. Fold in coconut.

Note: I toast the coconut first then fold half of it into frosting and sprinkle the other half on top of cake after it is frosted.

Store cake in the refrigerator, if it lasts long enough. We have found that it is actually a lot better after it sits overnight in the refrigerator. Either way we think it is delicious.
