1 pkg. yellow cake mix
1 1/2 c. milk
1/2 c. sugar
2 c. coconut (I like to toast it)
8 oz. Cool Whip, thawed

Prepare cake mix as directed on package in a 9 x 13 inch pan. bake and cook 15 minutes. Poke holes down through cake with meat fork. Meanwhile, combine milk, sugar and 1/2 cup coconut in saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 1 minute. Carefully spoon over warm cake allowing liquid to soak down through holes. Cool completely. Fold 1/2 cup coconut into Cool Whip; spread over cake. Sprinkle with remaining cup coconut.

Note: Putting milk, sugar and 1/2 cup coconut mixture in blender before boiling helps make it finer to soak in holes.
