• 3 eggs
• 1 1/3 cups water
• 2/3 cup shredded coconut
• 2/3 cup chocolate chips
• 1/2 cup chopped pecans
• 8 oz cream cheese
• 1/2 cup or 1 stick, unsalted or salted butter

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

3. Sprinkle the coconut, chocolate chips, and the chopped pecans over the bottom of the pan.
4. Mix the chocolate cake mix along with the oil, water and eggs using a spatula or hand mixer.
5. Pour the cake mix over top of the coconut/chocolate chip/pecan layer.
6. In a saucepan or fry pan, melt the butter and cream cheese together.
7. Using a spatula or hand mixer on low, add the butter/cream cheese mixture together with the icing sugar until it’s smooth.
8. dollop the mixture on top of the uncooked chocolate cake in the pan, and swirl using a knife into the cake mix.
