Step-by-Step

Preheat oven to 350. Spray 2-9 inch cake pans with nonstick baking spray.
Prepare cake mix according to package directions adding in the 1 cup coconut.
Bake cakes according to times on package directions.
When to cake layers have cooled make the frosting. In a mixing bowl crush the mandarin oranges with their juices with an electric mixer.
Stir in the instant pudding mix and coconut. Fold in the whipped topping. Mix well. Frost the cake layers.
If you want to garnish the top with 5-6 mandarin orange slices remove them before you crush the rest. Refrigerate for at least a couple of hours.
