Instructions
- Prepare the cake mix according to the package directions and bake in a 9×13-inch pan. Once baked, allow the cake to cool completely in the pan. This ensures the topping absorbs evenly without making the cake soggy.
- In a medium bowl, mix together the cream of coconut and the sweetened condensed milk until smooth. This rich, sweet mixture is the key to the cake’s signature moist texture and coconut flavor.
- Once the cake has cooled, use the end of a wooden spoon or a skewer to poke holes all over the surface of the cake. Space the holes about an inch apart and go nearly all the way to the bottom of the cake so the mixture seeps in thoroughly.
- Slowly pour the coconut and milk mixture over the entire cake, making sure to fill the holes and spread evenly. Let the cake sit for a few minutes to allow the mixture to soak in completely.
