Amazing cake has too many ingredients to put in its title. It features an easy base of a boxed cake mix, elevated by pecans, shredded coconut, chocolate chips and a swirled cream cheese mixture that is not to be missed.
1chocolate cake mix and ingredients listed on the box
8ouncescream cheese
2cupspowdered sugar
1/2cupbuttermelted
1/2cupchocolate chipsI used semi-sweet
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Prepare a nine-by-13-inch baking pan by spraying it with cooking spray.
Spread one-half cup of the pecans and all of the shredded coconut evenly along the bottom of the pan. Set it aside.
In a mixing bowl, prepare the chocolate cake mix according to the directions on the box. Pour the prepared mix evenly over the top of the pecans and coconut in the prepared pan.
In another mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar and melted butter until it is smooth. Fold in the remaining pecans and the chocolate chips.
With a large spoon, place dollops of the cream cheese mixture all over the surface of the cake batter, and then gently swirl the cream cheese mixture into the batter with a knife.
Bake for 35 to 40 minutes. Let the cake cool completely before cutting into it. Sore any leftovers in an airtight container.
