FRUIT COCKTAIL CAKE (FROM A CAKE MIX)
This delicious cake comes together fast, starting with a cake mix. I think the flavor is very subtle, and the cake is quite moist. The original recipe had a syrupy sweet icing on it, but I added the coconut/brown sugar on top instead, and I think it makes this a nice snacking cake. (*NOTE: I used a fruit cocktail I've found that has guava, mango, etc., and found the pieces a little large, so I chopped it up a bit before adding to mixture. The regular fruit cocktail with grapes, etc., should be fine w/o that)

PAULA DEEN'S FRUIT COCKTAIL CAKE
This was adapted from this summer's edition of Cooking With Paula Deen, in the section called From My Friends. I decreased her quantity of oil in the cake and used less butter in the frosting; it was wonderful! Moist, sweet, and easy. The frosting recipe is at the bottom.
