Cooking Time35 min

Ingredients

  • 1 box white cake mix, plus ingredients listed on box to make cake
  • 1 1/2 cup whipped cream
  • 2 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 cup shredded coconut
  • 1 cup sour cream

Instructions

  1. Make the cake from the mix according to package directions; bake it in two round pans.
     
  2. When cakes are cool, slice each in half horizontally, so that you have four equal layers.
     
  3. Combine the sour cream, sugar and coconut. Reserve 1 cup of this mixture, and use the rest to cover the four cake layers, stacking them as you go.
     
  4. Mix the reserved cup of mixture with the whipped cream, and use this to frost the outside of the cake.  For a more Easter-y cake, decorate with green tinted coconut and jellybeans.
     
  5. Refrigerate 3 days before eating.
