Malibu Rum (Or 99 Bananas) Cake image

In my college gourmet class, we did a unit on cooking with alcohol. The assignment was to come up with a recipe using our choice of booze - anything goes. I couldn't decide between Malibu Rum and 99 Bananas, so my recipe will work for both. When using 99 Bananas, just keep the measurements the same and sub in banana cream pudding for the coconut. So easy, So moist, and makes a pretty presentation. (Thanks to my Aunt Dorothy who's orange juice cake was an inspiration.)
