This is a cool, moist and very sweet cake. It's very easy to make and is always a big hit. It's a favorite for the 4th of July (decorated with strawberries and blueberries), Christmas (mint leaves and cherries) and Easter (jelly beans, etc...) Delicious!

Steps:
- 1. Prepare and bake cake, as directed on box, for a 9"x13" glass dish, adding 1/4 teaspoon coconut extract to batter.
- 2. While cake is baking, whip cream cheese, in a medium mixing bowl, until fluffy.
- 3. Gradually mix in the cream of coconut, sweetened condensed milk and remaining 1/4 teaspoon coconut extract until well combined. Set aside.
- 4. When finished baking, remove from oven and immediately poke holes all over the cake. (A bamboo chopstick or wooden skewer works well.)
- 5. Pour milk mixture very slowly over the cake, saturating every hole (the slower, the better.)
- 6. Refrigerate cake until cold (about 2 hrs. or more.)
- 7. Spread whipped topping over cake and sprinkle with the coconut.
- 8. Decoration tips: For Christmas garnish with mint leaves and maraschino cherries or red raspberries; for Independence day use strawberries and blueberries to create stars and stripes; for Easter use jelly beans, pastel malted milk eggs or Peeps.
- 9. Refrigerate leftovers.
