White or yellow cake soaked in coconut syrup and topped with coconut-flecked whipped topping. I like to substitute stabilized whipped cream instead of Cool Whip, for better flavor. My husband's favorite!

Steps:
- Bake a 9" X 13" white or yellow cake from a mix or homemade.
- After cake has cooled about 15 minutes, poke holes down through cake with utility fork.
- While cake is cooling, make syrup. Combine milk, sugar, and 1/2 cup of the coconut in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer 1 minute.
- While hot, carefully spoon coconut syrup evenly over warm cake, allowing it to soak down through the holes. Cool cake completely before frosting.
- Fold 1/2 cup coconut into the Cool Whip or stabilized whipped cream. Spread over cooled cake. Sprinkle remaining coconut over surface of whipped cream.
- Refrigerate leftovers.
