Ingredients
- 1 cup sweetened coconut flaked
- 1 box German chocolate cake mix prepared per instructions
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 8 tbsp butter
- 4 cups powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Coat a 9 x 13 baking dish with cooking spray.
- Sprinkle one cup of sweetened flaked coconut on the bottom of the dish.
- Prepare the German chocolate cake per package instructions (use coconut oil if you can for extra coconut flavor); beat well with a hand mixer until creamy and smooth.
- Pour the prepared cake batter evenly over the coconut.
- Prepare the cream cheese mixture by melting the cream cheese and butter in a large saucepan over medium heat.
- Remove from the heat and add the powdered sugar and vanilla; mix well until creamy and smooth.
- Add dollops of the mixture to the top. You can leave as is, which makes a fun earthquake top, or you can swirl the top back and forth a little bit with a knife to make a swirl effect. Your choice!
- Place into the oven and bake for 40-45 minutes or until the cake has set and doesn't wiggle much when you move it. The tester test won't work because the cake is a bit gooey on the inside.
- Allow to cool on a rack. Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. Enjoy!
