Dana's Notes:

This cake takes three days to 'marinate', but is so delicious that it is worth waiting for! This is my favorite cake that I make for my own birthday every year!

 

Directions

1
Bake cake as directed in 8 or 9 inch round pans.
2
Cool completely.
3
Cut each cake into two layers. You should now have four layers.
4
Combine sugar, sour cream, whipped topping, and only 2 packages of the frozen coconut in a bowl and mix.
5
Spread over first layer. Add second layer and repeat until you have iced all four layers.
6
Spread icing onto the sides and crumble remaining package of coconut onto the top and sides of the cake.
7
Refrigerate for 3 days to 'marinate'. Trust me, it's definetly worth it! Enjoy!

Thanks for sharing this recipe with your groups, Vanessa and Stormy. Lannie, you can use bagged or canned as well, but I have always bought the frozen coconut because it seems fresher without having to grate it yourself.

I would like to know the size of the whipped topping. I'm afraid that if I don't the the right one it will not taste the same.

I am interested in trying your recipe BUT...I have never heard of frozen coconut before. Can I just freeze the shredded coconut? I can't get frozen coconut here in Australia. I can get regular packaged coconut that is shredded some sweeted some not and fresh coconuts...should I grade one of those and freeze it? The fres wouldn't be sweetened at all.
