Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and bake your cake per box instructions.

Once the cake is done poke holes while hot and pour the cream of coconut over top. While the cake is cooking you will want to open up the cream of coconut and give it a good stir as it often separates the liquid and solid. You can often find the cream of coconut in the mixed drink area of your local grocery store. Now that you have this poured and spread over your cake allow the cake to cool completely.

Now you are ready to top with the cool whip and shredded coconut.

You can eat a slice immediately or refrigerate for a couple of hours before serving. Which I think this cake cold tastes the best. Refrigerate leftovers as well.
