Sherri's Wonderful Coconut Cake
Obviously, this recipe is from Sherri. On Christmas 1997, Daddy was getting Sherri’s Wonderful Coconut Cake out of the fridge and accidentally dropped it. That didn’t stop Daddy. He grabbed a fork and hollered at Momma, “Want some?” Oddly enough, that was the last Christmas Leon and Genevieve spent with my family. Go figure.
Ingredients
1 package Yellow cake mix (Sherri prefers Duncan Hines)
1 can Sweetened and Condensed milk
1 can cream of coconut
1 (8-oz.) carton Cool Whip
2 bags frozen flaked coconut
Bake cake as directed on package for SHEET CAKE.
After cake is baked, make a lot of holes in the cake with an ice pick or fork. Pour the sweetened and condensed milk over the cake. Let the cake sit for 30 minutes.
Pour cream of coconut over cake. Let cake sit another 30 minutes. Spread on Cool Whip and sprinkle frozen coconut on top. Refrigerate and keep Daddy and his danged fork away from it.
