What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!
This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.

Our family is hooked! I made this cake for my Mother's 60th Birthday Party 2 weeks ago. I am preparing it again at the request of another family member, for their birthday!

Very, very tasty! And not really all that difficult. The only tricky part is putting the layers on top of each other which goes pretty well if you don't put too much filling between them. It's a really nice spin on a layered coconut cake.
