I just made this for my husband’s birthday cake. We all loved it (seven of us were at his party). I traded the cool whip for an altered WilliamsSonoma recipe for Seven Minute Frosting ( http://www.williams-sonoma.com/recipe/seven-minute-coconut-frosting.html ). And I altered the cake as well:
For the Coconut Cream Poke Cake I used Duncan Hines white cake mix, 2 backyard jumbo eggs, 3 TBS sour cream, 3 TBS oil, 1 c water. Mixed, baked, & cooled.
POKED & Cream of Coconut (Roland brand) heated a little and poured on.
Chilled.
7minute frosting (WilliamsSonoma) untoasted coconut on the frosted cake
use only: 4 egg whites, 1/8 salt, 1/2 tsp vanilla extract, 3/4 c sugar, 1/4 c dark Karo syrup. Whisk in vanilla & then continue to whisk & heat over hot water (doubleBoilerStyle) until the whites are hot to the touch. Beat till room temp & thick. Frost the cooled coconut cake. Top w/soft UNtoasted coconut.
