Ingredients
- 1 cup chopped walnuts
- 1 (3.5 ounce) package flaked coconut
- German chocolate Cake mix
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1/2 pound cream cheese
- 4 cups confectioner's sugar
Directions
Preheat oven to 350*F. Grease one 9X12-inch cake pan. Cover the bottom of the cake pan with the chopped nuts and the flaked coconut.
Prepare cake mix according to package directions. Pour batter over chopped nuts and coconut.
Melt butter, add cream cheese and confectioner's sugar. Stir till blended. Spoon over unbaked batter.
Bake at 350*F. for 40 to 42 minutes. Please note: you cannot test for doneness, as the cake will appear sticky even when it is done. The icing sinks into the batter as it bakes, forming the white ribbon inside.
