I have had the traditional version of this cake before, and was super happy to find a coconut version! The mixture of condensed milk with coconut milk give it a fantastic tropical feel. I like that I would prefer thee flavour of pecans, rather than walnuts on this cake. Either Cool Whip or regular whipped cream are great choices as toppings. Very yummy and great to serve at summer parties or potlucks!

This cake doesn't really need nuts.....But you could use walnuts or pecans....Whipped cream is the best....You can use dark chocolate cake or white both are excellent...where you don't see amounts listed it means use the whole can of cream of coconut and the whole can of condensed milk...Those are basic can sizes...I freeze this cake often it taste like ice cream to guests...This recipe was in a magazine a few years ago...Without nuts or pineapple that you see all over the internet...

I made this with pecans and let me tell you this is my favorite coconut cake. I made a small change to it I made a Cool Whip frosting with vanilla instant pudding and spread that over the cake before the coconut and nuts...OMG it is AWESOME!!! at room temp when you can taste all the ingredients that will melt in your mouth...yummy.

sounds like a great cake, BUT there are NO hints at the exact sizes of each ingredient - other than the 1/2 cup of nuts & 8 ounces of cool whip..also, is the flaked coconut sweetened..PLEASE CLARIFY...
