Ingredients
1 box of white cake mix
3 large eggs
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 cup water
1 package (3 oz) pineapple flavored Jell-O
1 package (3 oz) coconut flavored Jell-O
2 cups boiling water
1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
1 cup crushed pineapple, drained
1 cup shredded coconut
1 tub (8 oz) whipped topping
1/4 cup maraschino cherries, halved
1/4 cup toasted coconut flakes for garnish
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.
2. Prepare the white cake mix according to package instructions, using eggs, vegetable oil, and water. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan.
3. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
4. While the cake is baking, dissolve the pineapple and coconut flavored Jell-O separately in 1 cup of boiling water each.
5. Once the cake is baked, let it cool slightly. Poke holes all over the cake using a fork or skewer.
6. Pour the pineapple Jell-O mixture over half of the cake and the coconut Jell-O mixture over the other half. Refrigerate the cake for at least 2 hours.
7. After chilling, combine the sweetened condensed milk, crushed pineapple, and shredded coconut in a bowl. Spread the mixture evenly over the cooled cake.
