coconut cream pie cake
I got this coconut cream pie recipe some time ago. It took me a while to try it, and we were hooked. I suggest making and frosting this cake a day before, as the texture is better the second day. So yummy!
Blue Ribbon Recipe
Tender and moist layers of cake are infused with the essence of coconut and create a luscious foundation for this coconut cream pie cake. The topping is a cloud of whipped cream. Light and airy, it balances the sweetness of the cake.

How To Make coconut cream pie cake
-
Step 1Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Make the yellow cake according to package directions.
-
Step 2Bake in a 9 X 13 baking dish for 23-28 minutes.
-
Step 3While baking the cake, mix one can of coconut cream (or milk) with a can of sweetened condensed milk.
-
Step 4When the cake is done and while it's still hot, take a skewer or a chopstick and poke holes evenly all the way through the cake. Be sure to poke holes along the sides of the cake if possible. Leave the cake in the pan or dish by the way.
-
Step 5Pour the coconut milk/condensed milk over the cake evenly until it's all used. It will pool along the cake, but that's ok.
-
Step 6Let the cake cool in the pan or dish. Then put it in the refrigerator.
-
Step 7When the cake is cold, spread the Cool Whip over the cake.
-
Step 8Then sprinkle the flaked coconut over the top. If you can, make this one or two days ahead of time; the consistency is like a coconut cream pie. The taste is very good, and the texture is creamy.
