What a wonderful treat! Not for lightweights it's packed full of yummy chocolatey calories. Next time I would either cut the filling/topping amount in half or bake two cakes as it was too much for one 13x9x2 pan. Thank you for sharing!

The recipe is too much for a 9X13 pan.. I had the final topping running all down the outside of the pan. I recommend cutting down the middle and bottom layer ingredients by about 1/4th each. I followed the directions exactly and found this cake good, but way too sweet. The bottom layer was mushy. I won't be using this recipe again. Maybe someone can tweak it enough to make it work better?

I made this in one cake pan. I baked the cake for the time given for a 9X13 pan on the cake mix box. Then put the coconut filling on top of the baked cake. I put walnuts on top of that (I did not have almonds) then finished by pouring the glaze over the top. Next time, I will put about 1 cup of evaporated milk in the coconut filling instead of regular milk then decrease the evaporated milk and sugar in the chocolate glaze to make it thicker and less sweet.

Wonderful cake! Wouldn't change a thing as far as the cake and filling. I didn't have evaporated milk for the frosting, so I used the Satiny Chocolate Glaze from this site. Excellent frosting for this cake. 13 x 9 was too much cake for a family of 5, so I cut it in half and froze the rest. A week later, pulled out the frozen half. I think it was even better! Defrosts quickly and tastes great. I can't give this cake enough compliments! Thank you!
